THE SCENT HAS BEEN REFORMULATED JB 05/29/08 06:14 PM NOT RATED
 
MESSAGE BY JB
The scent has been tweeked/reformulated. If you have, or can get a hold of a vintage bottle, compare it to the stuff thats for sale today, there's a HUGE difference! I LOVED Halston, but the new stuff smells bad, really cheap & I cant & wont wear it. I dont know what they did to it, but now it smells way more flowery & a little bit like hairspray, and the deep, intense drydown of the original is gone. The drydown of the new version smells synthetic & weird, like chemicals. Also the color of the cologne has been changed along with slight variations to the bottles. I have bought & used the original Halston for many, many years & Ive saved up a stock pile of the vintage Halston cologne & parfum, I have many bottles, that have been properly stored and cared for, so I know that my stash hasnt gone bad, its the new stuff for sale that has gone bad. My rating is 5 stars for vintage Halston, 1 star for the reformulated version.
