About this deal

Sergey Borisov, an esteemed perfume journalist and an essential member of the Fragrantica team since 2013, studied Physics at Krasnoyarsk University. Known as moon_fish in the online fragrance world, his expertise has been showcased in prestigious publications such as GQ, Vogue, and Cosmopolitan. A connoisseur of oud oils, vintage scents, and notes like leather, vetiver, neroli, and orris, Sergey continues to captivate readers with his in-depth articles. 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 is light and cool and sweet and bracing, definitely of its day (1976) and definitely of the Old Spice school, having originally been made by the same company, Shulton. 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. The citrus top notes are beautifully blended with the geranium, rose and lavender heart. The base of dark patchouli and cedarwood is equally well balanced with the softer vanilla, amber and musk.

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.Parfums Bleu Blue Stratos Pre electric Shaving Lotion is great to use before your electric shave for a smoother, closer, more comfortable shave with the cool, exhilirating sensation. Classed as a classic scent which features as a landmark fougere fragrance in the industry 'bible' the H&R Genealogy of masculine fragrances. • Top notes: Citrus and Lavender. The EDT of Blue Stratos seems to be more rapidly faithful to the notes than the aftershave (which is foolishly offered in a spray rather than a splash). The aftershave has a sharper alcohol opening before anything starts to happen and I can imagine impatient people leaving it on the shelf after testing it. This review is for the EDT, though the two do have the same scent. All new bottles no longer have the sleek shiny cap, instead having a clumsy anodised matt cap.

Pour a small amount into the palm of your hand and apply evenly over the beard area before shaving. 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.

When I first encountered Blue Stratos in 1991, in a family bathroom during a visit, I knew nothing about it and had seen no adverts. I just opened the blue bottle to smell it - and the first thing that came to my mind was a soft and watered-down Kouros Yves Saint-Laurent. Now I understand better why - the shared citruses, patchouli, and fougère skeleton and a clear animalistic touch do give the fragrances some similarity. They both evoke the clean center of a house - the family bathroom. But Blue Stratos is much lighter and weaker - non-intrusive and at the same time very refreshing due to oranges and lavender. Blue Stratos Original Pre-Electric Shaving Lotion helps aid a closer and more comfortable shave with your electric shaver with the cool exhilarating sensation of Blue Stratos.
