• Review of Cigar Aficionado by Laurence Seybold

  I would be very careful about purchasing anything from this line. I use to buy it on the net after the original producer/company went out of business. You could still find this very clean and attractive scent up until a few years ago. Today, virtually every bottle has a very old and musky fragrance. Most resellers, including the "one"company that says it makes it from the orignal formula, is incorrect. You will not get anything remotely like it should be. Unfortunately, I have not found any company on the web that would be willing to check-out why the formulation smells so different and badly in my opinion. I haven't found any friends or relatives who like the smell at all. If you know a dealer that will check with the manufacturer or distributor over the discrepancy, that would be great for all of us--- please post. I'm certainly not knocking Perfume.com, they just sell it as is and might never know that it wasn't right. Most dealers send it in the original packaging which makes me wonder if it is old stock or if they are just using the old "leftover bottles owned by the 1st company. The black finned bottle has a metallic logo piece running down the center of the bottle. In the orders I have placed, the metal has a definite"pitting" and "oldness" to the metal which is common with "oxidation" over time. Now, If you can actually get your hands on the original potion, it's amazing. It does't smell like all those "me-to's" that litter the men's fragrance field. I can guarantee women love it and men can't replace it, as it is a unique aroma onto it's own. Good luck. Happy hunting. I can be reached at laurence @ carenza.com for further info or comments.
