Styletto

Styletto O Boticario (Shteeleto O'Botichario) separates the boys from the men. The boys can't cut the tried and true essence Styletto has accomplished for many decades. Grounded, earthy, strong. Love it or learn to love it while developing your character up out of squeamishness. This is another fragrance where the naysayers show their lack of savvy. Similar, though having its own unique approach, to Aqua Di Selva, Styletto is among a handful of man scents that will never again have to answer for themselves as they have fielded victorious proof in abundance - rather men must arise to the challenge living in the bottle. Hailing from Brazil this global performer carries one of the best attributes of Latino culture: unapologetic boldness. If you prefer the option to make excuses rather than all that is involved in courageous conduct of what must be done - don't injure your weaksauce on the steel of this frag.

One of my father ́s favorite! Probably one of the first fragrances I have ever sensed! Good for a day at work. Intense, woody and serious! An unexpensive option from Brazil.

Citrus, sour, masculine. Starts a little funky, urine-like, then it dries to a good wood + citrus. Good to wear at the office.

This is so good and natural smelling, like they actually used real ingredients. Wish I could find a way to buy it in Canada.

É uma fragancia que eu diria que pode ser compartilhada. Me lembra muito perfumes masculinos mais antigos e classicos, que são bons mas não se destacam muito em originalidade, bem old school. Com um preço ok, performance ok na minha pele e projeção ok, no geral um perfume bom, ótimo para o dia a dia, diria que vale a pena ter na coleção. Sua saída é muito marcada pela lavanda e o alecrim. Depois de seco ainda é um aroma bem aromático apesar de mais suave.

I Particularly's not like the smell That Reminds Me beetle. I prefer the styletto elegance, that is far more sophisticated and has wood notes lightly sweetened by apple and bergamot notes. the freshness marked by lavender and mandarin. I have not found it here at the site styletto elegance but is better than this. :)

It took me a long time to digest Styletto's "macho" proposition, much longer even, the aromatic out of it did not convince me at all and in no way did I see him using it, even being passionate in confession of perfumes with the old school vibe that follow the line of this classic here. Everything is explained by I always have feeling, experienced and opportunistic Styletto in temperatures, environments and / or occasions not opportune, only. For nowadays, I do not know what will become of me if there is the discontinuation of this "sir" serious and full of respect. In me, its notes of exit denote very well a mix between Lemon, Bergamot and the aromatic juice of the Rosemary, something bitter and very medicinal even, only that does not desanda, because the Lavender already rises and it attributes a lordly odor that reminds us barber shops vintage. Sublime! Already in the middle, after 4 hours of great projection Styletto is even more aromatic, and with an olfactory sensation that makes the line of being a bastard, that man who exhales testosterone, who wears a well-made beard, has chest hair, speaks serious, stomps firmly on the floor, speaks looking into his eyes, smiles little, and wears an almost imperceptible strand of gold. Maybe it's the coriander that I feel in him that makes me have this virile social representation. Finally, the male is dominated and becomes a little resinous and amber, with chords of dry Patchouli and shavings of Oak Moss dewyed by morning serenity, somewhat half-heated but measured and behaved. It is well worth having a Styletto in the collection, especially those who enjoy old school perfumes.

If you are familiar with Worth Pour Homme and Brutal Classic Intense, they should give you a pretty good idea of what Styletto has to offer. A classic old school aromatic fougere that starts out rather nasty, herbal, and earthy and dries down to a fantastic near skin scent that in my humble opinion, only 40-50+ guys can pull off. This is a man's smell. Not a boy's smell. A man who has seen it all, done it all, kinda mysterious, with a young spark in his eyes, full of surprises still, but prefers to keep it to himself. You will see him at your local hipster coffee shop in the corner wearing old jeans, a clean shirt, and a pair of hand sewn Portuguese Budapesters. At night you might see him wearing a nice suit at a party where you tend the bar to pay for your surf lessons. He, of course, is talking to a beautiful creature. The next time you search for him in the crowd, he is gone, and the heavenly creature is now talking to another man, but keeps looking around to try to find that puzzling man. The new version of this amazing gem comes in a great looking frosty glass bottle, with a wood cap. Nicely done Brazil.

There is something a little old-fashioned about this scent from the middle of 80's. I read that is somehow similar to Gucci Nobile, which I didn't have the chance to know. Starts strong, a little harsh, very citrus, sour not sweet, and quickly becomes soft, like many scents from this brand. Truly masculine, not a "neutral" one, is nice to (re)discover it. Edit: I said "Gucci Nobile" once I read in some place about it. But seens to be a consensus that is actually related to Drakkar Noir. So as Ágilis, by Água de Cheiro (another brazilian brand - I like that), which one may be even more related to.

I like this! It's a good wood fragrance.
