Beene Grey Flannel Eau de Toilette 240 ml

Product Information

There's something powdery in this scent that makes it milder, although it doesn't lose its greenness. Ever since 2014, I started to get a huge interest in fragrances and I've had my nose on countless of different fragrances. A double-breasted pajamas, which is worn mainly in winter but also in the summer (more sparingly dosed) before the sandman or optionally sweaty coitus to use . e. Alber Elbaz, Doo Ri Chung, and Kay Unger, who all went on to become successful fashion designers. Only from this perspective do the first impressions described above make sense: that is why the fragrance components may seem so unconnected and stand next to each other.

I would like to caution those who spot a bottle of Grey Flannel at a discounter to take care to confirm that it is indeed Grey Flannel and not Eau de Grey Flannel. The fragrance gives off a bittersweet vibe/aura without being olfactorily bitter nor sweet, as if from happy and sunny to a bit more melancholic. I, in fact, find Eau to be pretty unbearable and a couple of the descriptions found in the comments here and even one or two on the review page sound more like descriptions of Eau than the original. Now it stands in the dark closet and waits for these rare occasions when I reach for the botlle only to smell the pump.The bitterness of galbanum is what greets you, which is incongruent with modern sensibilities, I'd wager, since most men (and women, of course) are attuned to sweeter-smelling notes nowadays, but wait it out a bit, because the scent mellows into a violet leaf accord with aubepine aromachemicals and a touch of iris and almond — from the coumarin — in the background.

This is also a great fragrance to wear to the office, as it has this slightly formal vibe to it as well. The first distribution agreement of course was Jacqueline Cochran and also the first reform that occured around 1979. In fact, It leaves me sometimes feeling a bit empty, yet at the same time elevating me to joy, perhaps because of the previous negative emotions. It's also easy to find "vintage" bottles-- nobody really over values this fragrance (and in this case- that's a GOOD thing). In the drydown, it gets heavier, sweeter and rounder for me, tonka and oakmoss building a soft base for a very tiny bit of cedar bite.Understandable, since this fragrance does have a DNA that we have long, long associated with classic men's colognes. Designed by Geoffrey Beene in 1996, Eau De Grey Flannel for men is a refreshing, woody, mossy, fragrance. He took up fashion design at a local college and, after finishing his studies successfully, he went on to work for several fashion houses in New York and in Paris, France. If you really wish to source the original formulation of Grey Flannel then find those bottles with Ephoca as the distributor. But the scent eschews all stereotypes, much like dark, brooding characters who only seem like something, while they're hiding something else underneath.

I have worn Grey Flannel since the early 1980's and even I have picked up a bottle of the vastly inferior Eau by mistake. Rex, a common first name for male sheepdogs, is Latin for king, and one of the few "uncrowned" in the world of fragrances is Grey Flannel. You roll with the punches; your only worry is that the wood for the fire won't be properly covered and protected from the rain. In conclusion, I would not recommend Grey Flannel, simply because it’s more of a body spray type of feel, versus a powerful cologne that will last you throughout a party.He originally wanted to be a doctor, but ultimately decided to follow his dreams as a fashion designer. It’s great for casual wear, it’s subtle and safe enough to wear it to the office, and it’s mysterious enough to wear to a festive event. Actually a sad story, although it is not documented beyond doubt whether the involuntary consumption of his music has led to similar acts of despair in many. The middle notes are violet leaves, sandalwood, cedar, carnation, lily of the valley, honeysuckle, jasmine, and nutmeg. I think it has a nice undertone of freshness, but compared to the more expensive colognes, I would give it a no.
