Into The Woods

Woods was my signature cologne all through high school and college. I even worked at an Abercrombie in those days. Then it disappeared and reappeared about 7 years later with a reformulation and it was worse. It wasn't the same smell I remembered. I chalked it up to maybe my sense of smell evolving over time. It was more "soapy" and less smooth and powdery. I took a gamble seeing this clone and its mention of the 1997 formulation that I so loved in my younger years. I still have a half bottle of the 2010 formula so it was easy to compare the differences between the two. Honestly this blows the reformulation out of the water. Smells exactly how I remembered it and it's definitely worth buying if you want to relive some olfactory glory days. Can't speak to the sillage or longevity yet but it smells great so far. Not sure if my wife wants me to stand at the end of our driveway shirtless and in jeans, but this makes me wanna.
