Blue Stratos

Epic Journey Into the Bottled Yonder, 237 ------------------------------------------------------- Purchased mid-2019 Sprayed this 5 times at lower chest, 5 times rear of neck, 5 times front of neck. Need some staying power today and also something familiar and not brutally offensive. It sure has been a while and I still love it. Powdered citrus year round day and night good old-fashioned fun. This must have been more manly back in the day because all scents were more straight forward and basic, including the expensive stuff, that shortly after it became possible and acceptable for teenagers to wear. Smelling like your dad USED TO BE COOL. I know my brother loved my dad's Kouros and Paco Rabanne original and that's what he started with. Used each one for over a year, and that was a testament to how cool our fathers used to be. What the fuck happened to us? You've all been brainwashed by tiktok to hate everything on command, starting from things and people of the past. Stop that, it's silly. Anyway Blue Stratos must be within easy reach of any man and teen, this is now such a boy-ish scent it's endearing to whoever needs or uses it. I get so distracted by cheap niches and expensive discontinued crap that I forget where I came from and need to come back from time to time to appreciate the lot and the journey I went on to get where I am and how I'm so privileged to be venture beyond my old budget limits. Come home, boys. Batch: P090816 which would mean "produced 8th September, 2016".

Epic Journey Into the Bottled Yonder, 020 ------------------------------------------------------- 100mL EDT purchased mid-2019 Had the deodorant for a while in 2016 and/or 2017. Eventually found out it's actually an EDT after I last ran out, and after that eventually reprogrammed my mind computer that it's a real scent and not a refreshing deo. Holy shit is this good, one of the strongest dumb reachers of all. Powdery, blue, strong but somehow inoffensive. Not too nasty like deodorants become. Basically manly. I had the Key Sun Laboratories, and the EDT turned out to be by Key Sun too. Lasts forever, I still have my first bottle of Blue Stratos. Last I remember this isn't in the chemists where I am. Please somebody clone this into an amplified, hard-hitting version. It's not good enough honestly, used to be way better back in ye olden days. Batch: P090816 which would mean "produced September 8, 2016".

Before cool water we had blue stratos! A true aquatic scent without clone! Great scent❤️🇺🇸

Meh, 'sokay. Not truly blue...a musky blue-green. Different for sure but isn't worth chasing down for the $$$ it commands, imo. Shulton O.S. is far more plentiful, more affordable, and better.

An appealing and invigorating blue/green scent. Very 80s but still well worthwhile.

The first "blue" cologne (1974) long before the blue craze today. Totally different than the colognes of the 70's and 80's worn by men which often had heavy florals, musk/civet, barbershop vibes and the wonders of oakmoss. Blue Statos belongs in every serious collection. Try to find a bottle that says "cologne" rather than "after shave lotion." And make sure the eagle on the bottle is facing left just like the photo used here. That will be vintage made by Shulton. Newer bottles have the eagle facing right and it's made by "Key Sun Lab."

Masterpiece. Nothing to say, just masterpiece.
