@EscapeVelo Ralph Lauren made a perfume called Tuxedo in the 80s that's been discontinued for years. It was a dry, sophisticated chypre, a genre of perfume that basically doesn't exist anymore due to IFRA regulations on oakmoss. I was a skinny teenager with braces and way too young for such a va-va-va-voom fragrance, but I loved it so much.

I am eager to try the Dusk.

Today I wore Bill Blass Nude which was authored by Sophia Grossman in 1991. It's another chypre but not so heavy on the oakmoss, and miraculously you can still get it for a song. It's pretty feminine with a pear note and aldehydes, but men's cologne has been very syrupy sweet for several years now and ppl might not even notice.
