  • I was asked to do a review/comparison of vintage Brut and the modern Brut a few weeks ago. There was a great comparison out of England by PaulHFilms that I recommend you check out. I'll do a quicker comparison but will include two Brut Products Paul did not review. I also will do a comparison of Old Spice, vintage and modern. The following are a few cool links that really helped me.

    My grandpa swore by old spice, I remember once he told me he bought 100 bottles in the 70's because he was scared that they were going to discontinue it. To this day he still has a dozen or so bottles from the 70's

      In the 70's there weren't as many regulations for the ingredients that could be used in fragrances that's why is probably smells a bit differently.
      Another factor could be that from the vintage bottle the alcohol evaporated overtime and therefore the percentage of fragrance oil is higher than the modern ones.

    I have a bottle of Old Spice (in a glass bottle) brought back from India, as well as one of Brut (likewise in a glass bottle) brought back from France and supposedly they still use the original formula for making the after shave in those countries...though I haven't any vintage samples to compare them by. Both are great, though. I'd be curious to know if the versions of either Aqua Velva or Skin Bracer easily available today compare favorably with those of bygone years.

    If you're watching this and have never worn Old Spice, then its recommended that you do, its a great old classic with a unique smell that won't disappoint.
    Well, I wear Old Spice "Original" the new stuff and I'm decently happy with it. The sillage, longevity, and projection are not brilliant after 2+ hours. So I'm refreshing it if I want to retain the frag on me throughout the day. Its a competitively priced aftershave, you get what you pay for and in that respect, I'll keep on buying it as I have done for the past 40 years.
    I have about 50 bottles of various EDT's, EDP's Parfums and Colognes and I still buy Old Spice Original when it runs out! Its an agreeable, un-generic, unique frag out there on its own, a timeless classic and so it should remain.

      I have been using nothing but witch hazel as an aftershave for years. I have to shave 5 days a week and recently bought some of the old spice aftershave. Is there any reason it makes my face feel smooth? I figured with the burn and all that it would severely dry my face out. The opposite is very much true.

    I still remember when I got my first bottle of Proctor & Gamble Old Spice, it didn't quite smell right and was weak, the original Old Spice would last all day, the P&G crap was gone in less than an hour, I told my dad who used it also and found the same. That was about the same time Old Spice puck soap and cream disappeared off the shelves, that was around 1991. It was about that time dad and I found Col Conks and switched to the Bay Rum soap and aftershave, until it disappeared too.

    Once read that if you buy a new bottle of Old Spice after shave to put it in a attic over the summer to "age" it. I did that, left it up there for months over a very hot summer. Not sure if it did anything. Has anyone else ever heard of doing that or done it and what did you think of the results?

    Old spice original is the one you want, it’s different than the one you have. They make them in 3 different ones now I believe it’s the original, classic, and the cologne. The original is supposed to smell a lot more like the original as well as coming in a glass bottle, the label on the front will have stripes behind it I would like to know your opinion on it!

    It's always hard to compare old with new when it comes to fragrance. Chemicals breakdown over time and change so a thirty year old bottle of fragrance is not going to have quite the same smell as it did on day one. I have seen some surprisingly short lifespans on some expensive bottles of cologne in the past and I think they recommend that three years is about the standard life span of a good quality scent and that is only if it has been stored away from direct light.

It seems the company was sold a few years ago. The new stuff is okay but overwhelming when I first tried it. However, it tones down after a while but whatever new concoction they have come up with, I swear my poop now smells like Old Spice. I will probably buy more when this bottle runs out.

    Did the UK version of Old Spice change?
    Its still in a glass bottle here. I distinctly remember buying it for my grandfather when I was young and it saying "Shulton - London Paris" or something along those lines on the back, it had a grey stopper and a yacht on the front. I bought a bottle recently from a supermarket for nostalgia sake and upon smelling it took me right back but since I havent smelled the Shulton one in a long time I cant say for certain if it's changed.
    Anyone from the UK have an Old Bottle they could compare?

    • @kensurfs

      Thanks for the reply. Really Enjoy your videos.
      Always loved the smell of Old Spice since I was really young (I dont think I was even 10 yet) but was never allowed to buy it for myself because it was an "Old Mans" scent, In fact I used to occasionally sneakily splash some on when I was in my grandparents house.
      Fast forward to a few weeks ago I was in a supermarket and saw the box on the shelf and immediately thought of my late grandfather, I decided what the heck and bought it. When I smelled it I was immediately taken back when I popped the lid off. I've been using it for a few weeks now and love it, every time I splash it on it gives me a warm feeling because I associate the smell with memory. Its really funny how something as little as a smell can evoke good memories.

    Thats reminds me on cooking shows on TV, where I have to believe Chef Tony, that his cooked meal ist really good...
    But I just will try these 'older' ones - my father and my grandfather used old spice in former years...
    Thanks for your videos. I am with you sind the end of september (20th I guess) and I am going to to the point where I have seen all shaving stuff from you.... And yeah... I am addicted... I have 5 Shavers and I have also 2 unused packs of Shaving soap and I would like to shave myself daily, but the beards does not grow that fast...
    Looking forward for next videos. Stay save

    Does Vintage cologne keep that long? My dad wore Old Spice and you could smell it a mile away back then. I think they have toned down the cologne today to make it more subtle. I have found my dad's old shaving mug and kit, (Old Spice) and want to start using now.

    The old brut aftershave and the new brut aftershave are the same but you compared an old brut aftershave to a new brut splash on. The splash on has always been toned down a little so you can splash it on allover without it smelling too strong

  • @bradmason8606
    @bradmason8606 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Have you considered that the older aftershaves smell stronger than the newer version due to the alcohol evaporating over the years? The bottles are not sealed perfectly, and evaporation will occur. With the lower alcohol content, you are left with a less diluted amount of perfume oils. Not a higher volume of oils, but a higher concentration of oils per liquid volume.

    I have a set of the "original original" Old Spice inherited from my late grandfather many years ago. He only used a couple times, & it's early 1960's. A.S. same look as your bottle, (& btw how you tell, is by the stopper; the original original is a Bekelite pin, 1.5mm diameter, solid, & the later bottles the stopper is hard Plastic, 2.5mm, & hollow in centre.
    I inherited the set in early 1980's & did comparison to the then Orig scent O.S. I found the older type had the same initial punch but lasted a tiny bit longer than the early '80's version.
    The Brut, I have a very different opinion on;
    I find only when it's new, does it smell nice, but after 3 years it goes skunky, unlike the O.S. of any era.
    I had Hai Karate years ago, & Orig Yardley, & both were great performers.
    Pierre Cardin was an awesome scent.
    Old Leather, -only when new- & only the Tropical version, was good, but 3 years after, & whoo it reeks like a sweaty shoe.
    I still enjoy the scent of Old Spice, orig the most.

I'm planning on purchasing old spice cream from west coast shaving, made in India, there's 2 types from India, I had the one with anchors printed on it, smelt not even remotely close to old spice, in fact it smelt candle wax? Not for me. So I'm hoping the other type is better, I've read it is. I only hope one day I see brut shave cream or soap, not the goo in a can. The shave experience would just about be completed lol.

I try and support cons page the stray whisker when I can, he brings stuff over at a reasonable price.
