Halston 101

I loved this fragrance in my early adulthood. Sadly, it was far more admirable than the gentleman who wore it, but I found the scent tremendously appealing. UPDATE - trying fragrances at Sephora in Dallas yesterday, I came across the lovely The Des Vignes by Caudalie which has some combination of accords which is spectacularly evocative of Halston 101, in all the best ways. Side by side comparison might not stand up, but there is something VERY similar about the two. TDV is marketed to women, but I think it would be safe for a man to try. It's much lighter than Halston 101, but at least there is the satisfaction of the reminiscence. Next day, I can still smell the Caudalie on the back of my hand, and it still evokes the loveliest qualities of Halston101.

I recently acquired Polo with its assertive piney aura and was trying to recall if it is similar to Halston 101. If any one remembers Halston 101, or even has it now, and can directly relate its smell to Polo, I would appreciate it. Halston 101 is legendary to me; I recall once sampling it around 25 years ago, and remember how wonderful it was. Is Polo close?

I bought Ikon by Zihr, and it is nice, but not at all like Halston 101. If Elizabeth Arden has the rights to 101, it's a crime not to re-introduce this greatest of the greats!!! I still have half a small bottle, which I use on the rarest of occasions, and it still has the magic. Would love to stock up!

Darn tootin a 4.54 rating... well deserved unknown by Halston... no sweetness and a pleasant woody, leather with a hint if citrus. I do get a bright amberyness too with the drydown. Very pleasant. Ill perhaps change my notes later on as i become more familiar with this gem.
