Sienna

Year's ago I never considered Crabtree fragrance's worth spending my money on. Not to long ago just before they discounted the juice I tried to get my hands on one but I had no luck. 3 years later, I finally acquired this juice and I realize that it has more to offer than what is being offered most department store fragrance today in the $100.00 price point. At first spray there's a decent aroma of leather combined with spicy blend giving a worthy quality thou it's not a major brand name. The leather note is a real deep attractive masculine aroma not that synthetic vib. Aside from the spicy notes I almost smell a hint of lavender with a sweet musky vib. Longevity and Silage is very good lasting about 6-8hrs Finally, I wish that I had grabbed several bottles way back, hindsight is 20/20. I'm glad I find a bottle, it's perfect during the fall and winter months. If you want something that isn't cloying but something that compliments you this juice will do just that. Unfortunately on EBay this juice is selling for as much $300.00 or more. Good luck finding a bottle. 9/10

This smells like responsibility, accountability, and masculinity. There are only a handful of fragrances that give a fatherly vibe, and this is one of them. My nose gets spices, citruses, coriander, IBQ, musks such as galaxolide and tonolide (IFRA restricted), oakmoss above IFRA, and completely banned musk ketones. Musk ketones mixed with castoreum and synthetic civet make it kinda animalic. Although I've never worn or tried this fragrance previously before purchasing it, it is strongly nostalgic. It's not just the connection to aramis (it's much much better imo), it's the smell of my father, his friends and older male relatives. You simply don't smell anything like this today, even when modern fragrance houses try to make vintage inspired fragrances, because these musks aren't around anymore. I have to be in the mood to wear this one not because it's challenging to me, but because it's truly a time capsule and makes so nostalgic. Masculinity and testosterone, but in a judicious and calming way.

This fragrance was amazing. Crabtree and Evelyn was at the forefront of the fragrance renaissance of the mid 1990's to early 2000's. Everything in their line was a classic. It's a tragedy that the company destroyed itself. What made it worse was that it felt almost intentional. I don't hold a grudge with many companies, but the execs at C and E callously wiped out a high-end brand in the space of a year or two. It was like Disney destroying the Star Wars franchise.

One of the most beautiful fragrances I've ever owned. Intoxicating, warm and mesmerizing without being big and in your face. It worked for every occasion and was an everyday scent for me. If you have wore/smelled this before you know exactly what I'm talking about. Heartbreaking that C&E are gone. I can dream that a decent clone house will pick this up.

I am female, but I do like wearing this fragrance when I have some sort of "businessy" thing (such as a job interview or a meeting with bigwig-types). It is very classic and warm and I think it works well on both men AND women.
