    Menardo put out Jaipur the same year as Pi. Whatta legend. I own both and always find it interesting the little clusters of inspirations these perfumeurs are working with in certain time periods- in this case benzoin. Jaipur is probably my favorite “cheapie…”
    Xeryus Rouge is underrated! Glad you included it, great list Ram.

    Givenchy Gentleman original formulation, oh my God. What a magnificent smell. Beyond description. You have to experience it.
    Just had a very nice wet shave, barbershop style, whilst watching this video. Applied both the after shave and eau de toilette (original formulation of course), oh my God was all I could say.
    What a lucky son of a gun I am. I had this three decades ago, I didn't know it was this great and addictive. This is me in a bottle...I might have said the same thing about Amouage Gold and Jubilation XV, Mouchoir de Monsieur, Heritage 🤣.

    I was digging through the vintage designers last night and found my vintage Pi from 1999. I'm not sure if this ever had much of an orange top and I've never picked up pine but my bottle certainly doesn't have either anymore, if it ever did. This smells very benzoin/almond to me but designer, very designer. It's got that playdough vibe and the closest comparison I can think of (besides Cristobal) would be Jaipur EDP - except I prefer Jaipur by a mile. Always fun seeing if the 🐏 has a review!

    Hey Ram if you like Givenchy Monsieur Haute Concentration, I'd say you check also Armani Eau Pour Homme in vintage format (Cosmair for example). I find them quite similar in style (citrusy chypre oakmoss), blend and quality of materials used. I'll try to sample them at the same time in the next few days, but they do share that bergamote/lemon note to me.

    It's weird that I've never tried Pour Homme despite being around Blue Label so much. Tons of people wore that in the mid 2000s. Same era as Lacoste's tootie frootie Red. Parfumo is right. "Style in Play" was actually the ad slogan, not the name of the fragrance. But I'm definitely a fan of the original Pi, Gentlemen Only edt, Very Irresistible for men, Gentleman Reserve Prive, Trouble-Fete and Monsieur de Givenchy. Interesting how LVMH keeps blasting them out. The brand must be selling well.
