I couldn’t agree with you more - the Old Spice glass bottle is the best one. The Old Spice you used in the 60s/70s was made by Shulton. My dad used the Shulton Old Spice in the 80s and I clearly remember it being more luxurious, more concentrated, more creamier with more projection, more sillage, and more longevity than any version of Old Spice today.
Hey Mr Adam. 🙂 If I ever start my own fragrance house I'm going to create some of my childhood colognes I used to love that has been destroyed by reformulations. Like 1960's Old Spice, Brut etc. And some of the discontinued colognes like Chaps by Ralph Lauren which I also loved. 🙂❤
I like the Old Spice cologne spray. It last long if you spray it on your clothes. I sprayed it on a vest and the next day I could still slightly smell the cologne.
Such a classic. My grandfather taught me the subtle art of application when I was in grade school. Gifted me the vintage shulton glass bottle (with the large ship) that seemed like it would last forever. I remember one teacher told me it reminded her of her father. I could see in her eyes she missed him as I miss my grandfather today. Pardon the nostalgia. To me, nothing beats it.
This is what my dad has worn since before I was born… I’m 42 now, lol! But I appreciate this comparison! I’m going to get it for him for Father’s Day! Thank you!
Old Spice was my first scent but it was in the glass bottle with the grey cap in the 80's, i remember that version being better than the current version in the plastic bottle.
Me too! I agree. I assumed when I got the spray cologne the longevity would be much better, but it's not really that much better than the classic aftershave. But the scent is better though. How was your weekend Mr Ruben? Did you do anything fun? 🙂
In deed it's as you mention. The "original" is the closest to the old one. But it lasts just 30 minutes. Then it disappears. Smell nothing on me after 30 mins. At least the "classic" lasts longer on the body if you put a lot. I can smell it after 6 hours.
I acquired that same Old Spice Original in the glass bottle along with the Whitewater scented one at TJMAXX for just $3.99 for each! I have some of the vintage Old Spice and it's not far off, but still isn't the same due to different manufacturers. The nothing beats the vintage by Shulton!! Thanks for reviewing these! Jim
Hi Daniel, the „Original“ is here in Germany available almost everywhere and cost 4-6 EUR per 150 ml A/S, the EdT is available only online, but also only 5-10 EUR per 100 ml. It may be better than the US „Classic“, which I dont‘t know, however, compared to the „original Original“ from the Shulton era, it‘s just a pale shadow of it. Have a great start into the week, best regards from Germany, Daniel (as well 😉)
Howdy Mr Don. 🤠 I agree, nothing will ever be better than the original Shulton. I wish a perfumer would recreate the original Shulton exactly the way it was from when it first come out. 🙂❤
Shulton Old Spice und die ersten Jahre auch die Procter and Gamble Versionen hatten sowohl Eichenmoos als auch Coumarin, ich glaube auch Lilial als Inhaltsstoffe! Eichenmoos und Lilial sind mittlerweile verboten in Europa! Deshalb riecht das moderne Old Spice wie eine "verwässerte" Version und ist viel schwächer! Das betrifft fast alle Duft-Klassiker
I agree... The "Original",is FAR superior,to the current crap referred to,as ''Classic"(both aftershave and cologne)...When P&G purchased Old Spice from Shulton back in 1992 however,the INITIAL reformulation though a bit more flowery,than the powdery Shulton original,wasn't really hateful...not as good as the orignial Shulton of course but acceptable.. There is also,a very HTF ETD Original (COLOGNE,not after shave),bottled in this same polar white glass bottle,from either Italy or Germany....Cost is only a few dollars more..$17.52...but the shipping is close to,$50.00..I may go ahead a purchase a bottle,because as close as the ''Original after shave" is,it simply is too weak and doesn't seem to project very well....Just purchased a bottle a few days ago...It certainly smells very close to the Shulton formula though...not exact mind you but the closest to date that I'm aware of including the version being bottled in India,which is another attempt at recreating the original...SHEESH!! Why can't they just leave perfect alone and call it a day? Been wearing Old Spice,since first grade(1960) and purchsed my first 8oz splash on bottle,for $1.00... Of all the colognes that I have ever worn,including my current collection,of both designer and dime store scents,Shulton Old Spice formula will always be my very favorite..
I remember growing up in the 90’s, smelling the classic glass bottle old spice on my dad… I just loved that smell! It was nostalgic; make me feel safe and at home. Now my son uses the dry deodorant, spray old spice, and it is god awful. It reeks of the whole house and has this nasty artificial smell to it. I’m trying to talk him into using the old stuff from Italy lol🤣
Hi, the Indian made Old Spice Original after shave is fantastic! I am using! Almost like vintage stuff at an affordable & ridiculous price Rs235/(equivalent to the US$3.00) for 150ml atomizer glass bottle.
Hello sir. Your comparison made me reconsider some things. I live in Greece and having the original at my disposal at a relatively good price, I had in the back of my mind that if I found the American version I would be closer to the old old spice recipe. You have confirmed that this is not the case. Also yesterday, seeing a comparison of the Brut asl, I saw that the one sold in our supermarkets - Brut Original in a short glass bottle - is closer to the original Faberge version than of the other in the plastic tall one. All this time I thought you had the best versions οr the better ones.
Hey buddy. 🙂 I'm really glad I could help. A long time ago in the 60's, 70's and 80's Old Spice and Brut here in the United States was by far superior and quality was so good. But things have changed. Big companies bought them out and eventually made them so low quality! You'll just have to try different versions and see which ones you think are the best in your opinion. I'm so glad you commented to me. Thank you. 🙏
Of course Old Spice isn't the same! Even the European versions! Thanks to IFRA! Shulton Old Spice had both Oakmoss and Coumarin! I am not sure but I also think Lilial! Oakmoss and Lilial are banned now in Europe!
The original Old Spice was actually developed in 1937 as a fragrance for women. It was designed as an "oriental" amber style fragrance that was similar to the wildly popular Shalimar. It had a colonial style theme and did well enough that it sold out the first year it was made. The guy who made it created a men's line the next year. It was basically the same fragrance as the women's version, but without the rose, and it used sailing ships as a theme to differentiate it from the women's line. The men's version exploded in popularity, but they still sold the women's line until the 1960s. I grew up wearing Old Spice as well, and I still wear it, although now a days I much prefer real oriental amber style fragrances from companies like Amouage. However, they can be a bit heavy during the hot summer months, and when that is the case I still like switching over to Old Spice.
I have an independent perfumer who has recreated the Original Old Spice scent and somehow made it even stronger. Let me know if you guys want his contact.
I´m 47 my grandfather used to use Old spice so i love it i just wish the shulton version would come back any RUclipsr that do shaving videoes say thats the best compared till the one today, i guess its like that with every fragrance that has been reformulated
Yes I buy my supply of Indian Old Spice by Rubicon from ebay, they come in the red plastic 100ml bottles, and they also they make 150ml in cream coloured glass bottles, don't buy the white 150ml bottle version made by Procter & Gamble, it's formula ingredients is weaker and fragrance does not last as long, hope it helps you, Kind Regards.
Its still comes in a glass bottle here... I mean earlier though I seen plastic bottle ... and that use to be different shape bottle ..flatter kind bottle ... Now its like your bottle but glass bottle. Though It sure looks good but lil clumsy when u take out the aftershave. I mean I brought it after a long time... and just poured it like earlier upside down... and it was all over me. 😂 I mean didnt have the idea that its has normal bottle opening. But sure it smells great. And I took it from my elder bro... he use to use it. .Dunno about earlier but yep Proctor and Gamble is what produce it now here too but locally in India.
I still have several original bottles from the 1960s that were made by Shelton, not P&G -- the old bottles are very powdery, but stronger. I have all sorts of newer bottles from P&G, some Canadian ones, and some from India (which are made by Shulton of India!). Definitely need the one from Italy, though! Never seen one before.
@@danielsan3681 I think they're fine. The heavy "powder" note is definitely present, and the fragrances are still easily identifiable as Old Spice. And the longevity is still there, especially the old Spice "Burley" in the brown bottle -- I only wear it in winter.
All the current Old Spice scents are shit. The real original scent was the best. I won't buy the new crap because it smells the same as all the other manufacturers's stuff.

Exellent! This Original glass bottle is best Old Spice you can buy now a days in my opinion. 🙂
I have a bottle from the 50s that is almost full... Stuff still incredible... I love the old vintage stuff... Great comparison video... ^_^
i bet that smells great, they always have to mess with stuff
I have a bottle of Old Spice cologne. And I also like it much more than the plastic bottle aftershave.

Hello Mr Nick! 🙂
I'm glad you like it. 🙏
Old is gold always
Classic has a very weak fascinating smell in the dry down.
So Does the original smells stronger the fascinating or captivating smell?
When you said Nutmeg the penny dropped here.
😆
I definitely get that Nutmeg! Goes perfect with Cinnamon, Vanilla, Benzoin and Heliotrope. And actually everything else. This is well composed. 👍

@@dln9063 I bought them from Ebay sellers in India. I also bought tubes of shaving cream as well, in both original and lime.
How does the Indian one compare to the others? Am holidaying here wondering if its worth picking up
So what your saying is that you prefer Brut over old spice !
Did you check out the indian version plz make a review on that
I didn't even know about the Indian version. I'll check it out.

The smell of my teens . SOFTD Guapo by Aaron Terrence Hughes . No hype , all the ones I have tried (5 ) are brilliant .
Do people recognize when you are wearing newer versions of Old Spice or are they very weak and not noticable?

Older men recognize it.
Others just say I smell good. 😃
The newer versions are good in performance. 🙂👍
Did you ever review the eau de toilette ???
Yeppers! I believe I did. 🙂❤️
@@danielsan3681 can you post a link to it? Can’t seem to find it. Thanks!
i think the new old spice is garbage and is an insult to the original.. it is a watered down version with a tiny hint of the real smell at best
All the current Old Spice scents are shit. The real original scent was the best. I won't buy the new crap because it smells the same as all the other manufacturers's stuff.
Agree buddy. 👍
