Blue Stratos Eau De Toilette, Original Blue for Men, Lasting Fragrance, Classic Scent of Cedarwood, Vanilla, and Musk, 100ml

Its a shame you can only attach a photo and not upload a scratch-and-sniff ;-)I'm old enough to have worn Blue Stratos way back in I think the early to mid 1980s. I don't commonly wear any kind of cologne / scented aftershave / EDT these days, very rarely even when going out. And I find many fragrances quite overpowering and even unpleasant. However Blue Stratos is a lovely light and fresh scent that I do find really soft and pleasant. The current iteration isn't quite as I remember it but its still very clean and fresh. I think its lost some of its cutting citrusy sharpness and seems to have more of a pronounced 'talcum powder' scent that is perhaps based on iris/orris notes. Its comforting and clean, but not as sharp and 'cold' as it used to be. I think for the price this is ridiculously good value and outperforms fragrances costing ten times the price. If you buy with your nose and ignore brand snobbery, this really is hard to beat.

Gt smell and price and service

I've recently gotten into Blue Stratos. Love the fragrance so much I bought all the other products in the range!The EDT is no different and smells just like the deodorants and pre-shave lotion etc.The price is ridiculous. Can't believe it is so cheap. The profit margins must be wafer-thin and you can see they've cut back every penny they can from the production costs.The lid feels particularly cheap with how it fits on the bottle and can lean from side-to-side. I hope the atomiser is better quality else I wouldn't fancy it surviving long enough for me to use up the entire 100ml! It does spray well, but the atomisers on the clones frequency fail after 30ml or so I'm nervous about this one!Scent is lovely but it's a bit weak (no stronger than the deodorant), which is why I give it 4 stars. Honestly I'd rather pay more for a stronger scent. I mean this is laughably cheap and a third or quarter the price of even those "clone" fragrances you buy online! If this was the strength of a premium brand like Chanel, I'd gladly pay £60 rather than £6.Or even if they sold it for say the same price as Joop e.g. £25 and increased the strength, I'd be throwing my money at them.Still, on the plus side it's so cheap you can wear this a daily and just spray it on after your shower even if you aren't going out.

Nice enough but doesn't have the same smell as the original blue stratos

great item and good service

The fragrance of a better and happier decade, time travel in a bottle. Love it.

Love this aftershave, will buy more when it runs out

It doesn’t smell as I remember but still quite nice. Not very strong but at this price you can’t complain.
