This was a signature scent back in my clubbing days. Lots of compliments and lots of memories. Beast of a fragrance too. Sure doesn't smell inexpensive.
Thanks for this video big guy! This is the type of content that keeps me coming back. It was real/sincere! Plus not about the hottest newest release. It's refreshing to see!
Redolessence I’m in Burlington county I live right across from Philly on the Delaware River near the Tacony-Palmyra bridge, AC is probably about just a little over an hour from me. Are you close to Hoboken ?
When the Dylan Blue hype was at its climax, I needed to find a way to spray some on my skin so I got a sample. The opening reminded me of something and when I figured it out, it was this blast from the past.
This is my jam, I wore this in the 90s. I got a dope kite when I bought it from Bell's, I've always loved this one and plan to always keep a bottle of it.
This was one of my three first fragrances I've ever owned. So glad to see a review of this. So many memories with this.. Need to try this again when I see it. For sure Cool Water vibes as I remember it.
Taking it way back with this one. I literally bought this not long ago purely for nostalgic reasons. The original by the way, had the Wings name on the bottle itself. The new ones don't. I remember seeing the ads for this when I was a teen back in the 90's, had my cousin who worked at Lord & Taylor get it for me.
How did I miss this one! When this was released I was in high school. I will definitely blind buy this for a dumb reach to do errands. Thank you for your review you always do a great job!
Hey brother! This sounds interesting, I'll have to check this out! I have a looooooong history with Cool Water. I bought my first bottle when I was in Vienna Austria and it was my signature scent in highschool
You’re kidding. I just donated this to goodwill a few months ago. I had the bottle from when I was a kid and thought it smelled horrible back then. Fast forward to now and I’m interested in fragrance. Sad day for me
I actually have a bottle of this and thought to myself it smells dated. So I took a small amount of my Salvatore ferragamo subtil, and Salvitore ferragamo original and the Wings , mixed them all together and came up with a new modern version. (I am being serious). I get compliments a lot! I liked your description the most. I find that decribing what a scent smells like to be the most helpful.
Excellent video and information, Steven. I really like it that you reviewed a classic fragrance, and would definitely like it if you reviewed more of them in the future.
A very obscure review - I like this! Also, much prefer this setup to your perfume shelf backdrop - feels more casual and inviting ☺️ More reviews like this, please!
WOw. I graduated high school in 1992. Now, I feel old! I do need to try Wings, I can't remember if I ever smelled it back then. I was into Aramis back then, of all things, but the other guys were doing the aquatics. BTW, I remember smelling Opium pour Homme in 1995 at a department store, and thought no self respecting man should ever wear such a thing. Ten years later, who's wearing it? Me! I went through a bottle of the Edp in no time. It became my favorite, then it was discontinued in the USA. The EdT doesn't compare!
Hi Steven I only ask the one you bought that Wings, still have Name Wings in the Bottle.? I have before that but i comfused some comments have no more name Wings in the Bottle? The latest reliese.
@@Redolessence Why say it smells dated? Isn't Cool Water dated? Go to Walmart or any dept store fragrance aisle and on display is 30+ yr old Joop, Drakkar, Cool Water, Obsession, Eternity, yet Wings gets labeled dated because why, its cheaper AND smells better? (Those are all older than Wings). Im confused isnt smelling laundry fresh clean fashionable in any decade? Im curious because i ordered a bottle to wear around the wife, and from what i recall 20 yrs ago it had a pleasant unique powder clean smell. I doubt shes gonna tell me i smell TOO 1994.
I was born in the 80s and grew up in the 90s as well. I am only 2 years older than you. For some reason, I thought this was the one like Polo Sport. I haven't seen this fragrance since the 90s, so I am probably just misremembering.
Nice review on this one Steve. I just to own this one. But I give it to my father in law. Also I just let you know that I just order Navus. I just want something nice for summer. And I finish watching your friend Carlos video about his twelve summer niche fragance for summer. And he gives to Navus a good review so I just pull the trigger. This is my four battle from you fragance line. And so far i really like it them so I hope Navus do the same Keep it up Steve be safe.
Howdy Steven!! Just an idea from the 90s. May I ask you to review Platinum Egoiste for us? I was searching youtube and there is actually not one from you! Would be great to hear your take on it. Smells really like something our dearly beloved friend Mr. Arthur Morgan would wear imo haha
No good memories of this one. I think I gave away my bottle back in the day. Hard to believe that the perfumer of Curve did that fragrance as Curve was a real banger!!!!!!!
had this a while back my bro gave it to me he didnt like it ...neither did i ..its cheap smell and on me only last 30 min and smells like a floor cleaner
Sadly davidoff no longer smells,lasts or projects like Davidoff cool water anymore.It was my signature scent for 10 years. Now it just smells awful sadly
sounds interesting! i'm looking for some good scents with a cotton note so this sounds good. i dont love laundry detergent or straight dryer sheet smell, but i want fresh clothes out of the dryer if that makes sense
@@Redolessence any other recommendations that fit the bill? i've smelled clean warm cotton, i do like that one. was looking for something a tad less sharp
Sea Island Cotton from Bath & Body Works. Smells like a nice fabric softener. I haven't smelled Wings since the 90s but I definitely don't remember it smelling like fresh laundry.
Man... My ex used to sniff me like I had cocaine on my neck when I wore this. She kept saying it smelled like a Jolly Rancher. In '95 when I wore it, it would last at least 6 hours.
Not a fan of this one. The opening is too harsh for me, and then it gets so bland I'd rather be wearing anything else. Maybe it's because it's too old fashioned. Good review and nice shirt!

Thank you, Javier! I will try to do more videos like these!
It's wild this was my signature scent as a teen in High school lol, when I had no clue about how to properly wear cologne.
Rocked this scent mid to late 90s along with Cool Waters, Aspen, CK Eternity, Fahrenheit, and Tommy. Wings for me is a sweeter Aspen.
Such a classic clean scent and get alot of compliments from it. Also gbh red is a winner! Again dated but a lovely boozy winter beast scent
Thank you for sharing, Paul!
This was better than cool water. Wings was a solid cheap cologne. I still wears this. High 7
I got this as a gift in high school in the late 90s. I preferred it over Cool Water.
Really enjoying the recent reviews on classic / older scents ! Awesome video
Awesome! Thank you so much! Where in South Jersey do you live? Anywhere near AC?

This is one of my childhood favorites that i still wear. I got the 3.4oz for under 25 bux. Its sharp, crisp, fresh, and strong.
This was one of my three first fragrances I've ever owned. So glad to see a review of this. So many memories with this.. Need to try this again when I see it. For sure Cool Water vibes as I remember it.
Thank you so much! You smelled great back in the day!
Me too. This with farenheit and joop lol
It was in my first four drakkar,cool water,and eternity

You mean no have name in the bottle name Wings?
Mannnnnn this was my joint back in grade school! Wore this with my Boss clothing and ultra-gelled crispy hair haha. Awesome review!

That's awesome! I will have to try that blend! Thank you for letting me know about it.
For me smell similar than cool water or Versace blue Dylan

I remember 1995 I was a 12 yo and this perfume was me very firts and o remember this smell like something heavenly
This was my dad’s favorite back in the day
Classic!
I would call it a soapy aquatic. Very powerful, clean smell. Almost hate to
say this, but it is so cheap I use it sometimes for an air freshener.
No shame in that! Thanks for watching, Eric!

Just bought 2 50ml bottles of this today and hadn’t seen it for years!!
Sounds like a affordable gym scent.
Hi Steven I only ask the one you bought that Wings, still have Name Wings in the Bottle.? I have before that but i comfused some comments have no more name Wings in the Bottle? The latest reliese.
I couldn't where this cologne I tried many years ago and I saw it at marshalls a couple of years ago and the bad memories came back .
Sorry about that!

@Crazy Harry So simply asking a semi serious question means I'm taking LIFE TOO SERIOUS?
@Crazy Harry Well your obviously on board with it being dated but still cant offer a reason. That makes sense...
@Crazy Harry I watch a youtube review and post a question. (Taking life too serious). Dang i need a vacation.
I had a bottle of this juice in my collection in the early 90's. It is quite sweet. I think it is more suited for the younger crowd.
Thanks for sharing!
Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
Thanks for watching, Michael!
You welcome keep up the good work
I was born in the 80s and grew up in the 90s as well. I am only 2 years older than you.

Seems good Steven! Thank you for that option... your shirt is awesome 👌
Thanks!
Sammy! Those Cubas are actually not bad, the newer ones.

Yes! I agree. R.I.P. Artur Morgan. I would love to review that one!
@@Redolessence Thank you Steven!!!
I've been enjoying your nostalgia lately!
Thank you, Louis! More coming!
reminds me of Creed's Green Irish Tweed
Yes, it does a bit
Well done review as usual. I was so hoping that someone would get that original Cool Water back since the current version is sadly anemic.
Thank you. Yes, I would imagine it's been reformulated quite a bit.
Smell like blue Dylan too 😊
Hello i really like the perfume wings giorgi beverly hills and you explain well tell me how to get it?thank you
I have a link in the description section of the video if you're interested! Thanks!
Well, I'm buying my first bottle for sure, now.
You're wearing a magnificent timepiece,may I enquire what make is it?
Thank you! Invicta Objet d'Art 30185 Blue Dial
No good memories of this one. I think I gave away my bottle back in the day. Hard to believe that the perfumer of Curve did that fragrance as Curve was a real banger!!!!!!!
One of the best. Last long time too.
Nice review mate! 😊👌
Love your work my man. Your the best. Andy from Berkeley
Awesome! Thank you!
So much better than coolwater..i would think aspen and polo green are closer than this
basically is a cheaper version of cool water or Versace blue Dylan
Thanks for watching!
Loved the review.
Thanks, Jacob! Appreciate that.
Awesome video
It use to be an excelent cologne. I bought one last year and I use it as a glade
had this a while back my bro gave it to me he didnt like it ...neither did i ..its cheap smell and on me only last 30 min and smells like a floor cleaner
Fair enough! Haha. Thanks for watching!
Excellent review. Nowadays, this fragance is made by Elizabeth Arden.
Thank you so much!
Sadly davidoff no longer smells,lasts or projects like Davidoff cool water anymore.It was my signature scent for 10 years. Now it just smells awful sadly
I know what you mean. It's unfortunate.
sounds interesting! i'm looking for some good scents with a cotton note so this sounds good. i dont love laundry detergent or straight dryer sheet smell, but i want fresh clothes out of the dryer if that makes sense
Makes perfect sense!
@@Redolessence any other recommendations that fit the bill? i've smelled clean warm cotton, i do like that one. was looking for something a tad less sharp
Also try Blanche by Byredo
Sea Island Cotton from Bath & Body Works. Smells like a nice fabric softener. I haven't smelled Wings since the 90s but I definitely don't remember it smelling like fresh laundry.
Y Aqua quórum???
I love this perfume love love ✨✨✨✨
Hey Steven 😎✌
Hey, Anthony!
Lot of compliments in 90s and 00s is like the Dylan of those times
Yup!
"Cause you are the wind beneath my wings..."
Haha. Love it!
I want one
Great vid
Man... My ex used to sniff me like I had cocaine on my neck when I wore this. She kept saying it smelled like a Jolly Rancher. In '95 when I wore it, it would last at least 6 hours.
Wow great video
Thank you, Russell!
The bottle looks somewhat ergonomic.
True!
Bravo!!!
I got this recently lol don’t tell anyone
Haha. No shame in that!
Hello
It is veeeery sweet. U forgot that detail.
True. There's a sweetness to it.
THIS FRAGRANCE IS MADE BY ELIZABETH ARDEN FRAGRANCES
I haven't seen this in years thank for the flashbacks.....😀
You're welcome!
Hey there!!!
Thanks, Antoine!
First!
Thanks for tuning in!
Redolessence Of course no doubt
Not a fan of this one. The opening is too harsh for me, and then it gets so bland I'd rather be wearing anything else. Maybe it's because it's too old fashioned.
Good review and nice shirt!
Thank you so much!
Me interesa ese perfume
Es barato pero al ser viejo y difícil de conseguir le inflan el precio normalmente vale como 15 dólares y en el país de uno como 40
Lovey sickly sweet smell, I like it.
Glad you like it!
Man I remember this lol
Yup! It's definitely a throwback!
My mom bought this for me when I was young, I didnt like it XD
Awesome
Thank you so much!
Cool water sucked . No longevity
Vintage cool water lasted 12 hours maybe you didn't smell it or your nose is broken
