Now, having had the opportunity to smell that same vintage cologne again, I can clearly distinguish in it the brisk classic fougère top and heart; fresh lavender and resinous citruses. But now, besides the greenery, I can distinguish the sweet jasmine in the heart; this is where the animalic shade comes from - and it is continued with a warm honey-civet accord in the woody base. It manifests itself with patchouli and coumarin to turn into a dry cedar trail at the very end. What a delightful trip into fragrance history..... Such different marketing from today, for sure.. Anything blue today is 99% certain to be an aquatic. Happily for me, that is not the case here!

Pour a small amount into the palm of your hand and apply evenly over the beard area before shaving. Today, in our Vintages section, we will talk about the very popular and inexpensive men's fragrance Blue Stratos, released by the American company Shulton in 1974. Of course, the most famous Shulton scent is Old Spice - we covered the cologne in this review of its female forerunner, in the article "Our Fathers' Colognes" and in the article "How Old Spice Has Always Remained New." |Now produced by Parfums Bleu in the UK. This popular fragrance was launched in 1975 by Shulton Inc., The creators of Old Spice.

Sillage - probably weaker than it should be. For you and people close to you to enjoy. Spray more if you want to project more. It's probably a daytime scent, though this is a matter of taste and what works for a person's skin. Someone's review referred to it as 'inoffensive' and it is. It's cheap (in price), but it certainly isn't nasty. And so I give it a thumbs up. The base notes settle into woody vanilla, with faint citrus and florals still discernible. The scent is well-rounded and becomes mellow, quite refined and more masculine during the transition between middle and basenotes. Many children of the 70s and 80s will have an olfactory memory of Blue Stratos; either aftershave or talcum powder and if the scent has been reformulated at all, it hasn't changed all that much. The brand started this image change by expanding the range of their men's fragrances in the 1960s, releasing five fragrances in 14 years - York Town 1781, Teak, Old Spice Lime, Old Spice Burley, Old Spice Musk For Men, and Eastern Spice. Judging by the fact that the fragrances were discontinued long ago and that in 1970 the company experienced the first sales drop in its history, none of these attempts was successful. In 1971, Shulton became part of American Cyanamide, and with new financial support, they launched a new fragrance in 1974, Blue Stratos. Not the most dressy casual scent, the refreshing and bouncy Blue Stratos is reminiscent of a well-worn blue jeans but still equally suitable for work and weekends. This is also reflected in some artifacts of history (see photo below).I was intrigued to try this, having never heard of it, after reading Luca Turin's review - 4 stars - "Classic Fougere."
