Your nose knows what it likes and that's all you really need as far as inborn talent.Īs for the actual process, that takes a lot of time, patience and research.On March 31st, 2010, Old Spice uploaded the "Odor Blockers" series of commercials to their official YouTube channel. If I understand correctly, you have stated that you don't really care about authenticity as long as it's natural, and smells like old spice to you. Does any have his recipe or one like it?ĭon't let "Professional Perfumers" Poo Poo you into not trying. Bottoni seemed to be the guy to ask but he isn't around. I'd really love to make a vintage Old Spice clone using this list of ingredients, orange, lemon, spices, clary sage, aldehydes, cinnamon, carnation, geranium, jasmine, heliotrope, pimento berry, vanilla, musk, cedar wood, frankincense, benzoin, tonka bean, ambergris, perhaps eliminating the artificial. Any leads will help but I'd really love a solid recipe using the above ingredients (even if it isn't from "offical" sources) I'd even like to replace the aldehydes with natural fixatives (maybe increasing ambergris or adding different types of musk) Anyone able to help. So now I'm hoping someone else might have a good idea that can help out. I posted asking for his contact info but no answers. I joined only to realize bottoni hasn't logged on for a while. Bottoni seemed to be on the same quest with some success. I finally came across Basenotes and some posts by bottoni. I sent emails to historians and collectors to no avail. I searched for a few months getting a lot of the same. I decided that neither dollar stores or India would use real ambergris or deer musk. I finally found a list of ingredients (orange, lemon, spices, clary sage, aldehydes, cinnamon, carnation, geranium, jasmine, heliotrope, pimento berry, vanilla, musk, cedar wood, frankincense, benzoin, tonka bean, ambergris.) but no amounts. Claiming that dollar store brands and Indian versions were better and more authentic. I went on a bunch of sites looking for the recipe.I found a lot of people complaining about the change. I thought is was kind of stupid to put this new recipe juice in my cool vintage bottle. In reading about the old bottles I learned that the Old Spice recipe changed in 1990. I thought it would be cool to get a classic old bottle to put this classic scent in.

I actually work in what stores call the HBC segment (Health Beauty Cosmetic) making energy shots so in reading industry trades I had read an article about Old Spice switching from glass to plastic. I don't shave so that ruled out the after shave.

I looked it up, they both came out the same year. I decided this should be my signature sent. I still have the mental image of those two white glass bottles standing side by side in the bathroom of the big old husband of the lady who used to babysit me and my brother after school while my parents were at work. I thought to myself the original "Original" must be either the after shave or the cologne. The original deodorant, red zone, and high endurance all smell alike but different. I went through several scents finally landing on "Original" the problem is there are lots of "Originals" in the old spice line. But I only ever used Old Spice deodorants ans anti perspiratants. I only wear Levi's and Converse All Stars ect. I for whatever reason have strong brand loyalties to brands I feel are part of my personal image. (LONG VERSION for short version scroll down.
