Touch for Men

Sprayed this on my arm and noticed a resemblance to the Hanae Mori hm variety and then when I did do a side-by-side they were Incredibly Close I'd say about 80 to 90%.....Both smell very similar to each other I hope someone else takes me up on this and confirms that..... but I will say the Fred Hayman is not as strong as the Hanae Mori......I would give this Fred Hayman touch for men and 8.0 for the scent itself and 6.5 for longevity and silage..... have a nice day

Another one that agrees with the similarity to Brut, although more complex and longer lasting. It's a very beautiful fragrance, and sadly it's been discontinued.

amazing balance between baby lavender and amber what a nice couple

Dear Lanier, good friend. Cross with a child of mine? What have they done? Tell me please. I know they are misunderstood. At times I have to come out and defend my creations as they wander and stumble through the world. In 1994-1995 while I was at Parlux I created Fred Hayman's Touch for Men. After 20 years I can't recall which essential I house I worked with on it but at the time Givaudan, Firmenich, IFF, Creations Aromatic, Florasyth, Fragrance Resources, Quest and Takasago were all in and out of the office. Who knows where it is made now, or whether the scent has been tinkered with...I would think not. One of the first things to note is what a success this scent is - Touch for Men has its devotees. 20 years later and still selling. That is a lot of bottles. If I had to guess over 20 years somewhere between 200,000 and 250,000 bottles have been sold. That is a lot of spritzing, and fragrance on skin out in the world. Fragrances without a following die a quick and quiet death. Not so with Touch for men. And back to the scent - the direction from Parlux management for this fragrance brief was very very specific - make a Brut for men. Take Brut and enrich it, make it stronger, more bold and Brutish. I can see myself in the hallway right now in a passioned all-male conversation about Brut for men, I hear the words as they were said."the best scent ever for schtupping" There you have it. Go forth my child. The world is yours.

Well Jeffreydame, I just got your creation and wore it, and I think it's a great, smooth, sweet, joyful Brut-ish fragrance. I don't understand how that negative review below could be explained, other than the juice in his bottle had turned. I sprayed my modern Brut Special Reserve on card to compare. This Touch is a lot more sweet. In fact, since my Brut by Brut Parfums Prestige has "Sweet" listed as an accord, Touch for Men should also have a "Sweet" accord listed. I thought there was pretty significant divergence in profile, but the Brut DNA is definitely recognizable in Touch. I like it.
