The original Eau Sauvage from 1966 is another one that brings me right back. Amazing how a scent can totally transport you back like nothing else can. Not photos, not even music. It's so primal and goes directly to longterm memories and emotions.
@@jeetsaha4506 I think the 'Original' has not been available in UK for a long time,but what you can buy is good. The joke is,since we got covid in February both of us lost our sense of smell 🤣
My dad used to work for Fabergé & sell BRUT in the U.S. in the early 1980s. Since he knows more about the history of Fabergé & BRUT during that time than the internet does, I just want to share a few of the things he told me. The internet barely seems to provide any information about BRUT back when it was still made by Fabergé. For instance, there is little to no mention about: how popular it once was, how many sizes it was offered in, what different kinds of products were in BRUT's product line by Fabergé, or what the most popular product from its line was. When my dad worked for Fabergé, he said that BRUT's closest competitor in terms of popularity among mens' fragrances at the time was Old Spice. He also said that the most popular product in its entire line was the BRUT 33 Splash On Lotion in addition to the gift sets containing Soap on a Rope being hugely popular in the holidays.
Love Brut. I'm 43, reminds me of my dad and his friends heading off to play skittles. I've bought all of the brut products. You're spot one with the eu a de toilette. That's the closest.
My uncle was a sailor pretty much all his life and about 25 years ago he brought me the original (faberge) Brut and I remember it was a love at first sight for me that lasts till nowadays! Great video Paul. I would like to see another one for the Old Spice ...
After much research the rights to the brand Brut were purchased for some regions by Idelle Laboratories, a division of Helen of Troy Limited. There is a bottle made in Mexico I think which is 757ml (huge bottle!) and will probably last several lifetimes. I got a bottle online for £30 or so and it is exactly like the original in every way and lasts all day. Worth a look for those interested.
No product today comes close to the Faberge original. Unilever produces the fragrance from partly artificial substances. Thanks Paul for the video. I also have an old bottle from the nineties. It's amazing that it's still intact. It smells like the first day and is absolutely unique. It's a shame it's no longer available. Greetings from Germany
I usually wear Old Spice. Recently started wearing Brut also, cause my wife's dad wore both, and she suggested I do the same. He'd wear Old Spice one week, then Brut the next week. Thanks for the video, I will continue with Brut, cause it smells fresh, and manly. And is a great value, and a timeless classic.
Interesting idea there! I have used various things over the years but never brut, even though I like the scent, I like the scent of old spice too so might try this idea, thanks!
I too have a bottle of the Original Brut. I have cousin who is considerably older than me originally own the bottle and just abandoned it. I found it and have immediately laid claim to it. I have some Hai Karate too... :D
Love this video... well done... nothing like a good reminisce... I was in the Royal Air Force as an apprentice at RAF Cosford in 1969. I used to go roller skating at weekends in Wolverhampton Whispering Wheels. As a 15+ year old apprentice I earned £5.00 per week of which £2.50 was compulsorily saved into a Lloyds bank account. I cannot remember the price of the miniature bottle at the time but it was all I could afford. Haha, I remember we took turns in buying it and handed it around the cadets for a one finger dab each at weekends... glad I watched your video as I have just bought a bottle of EDC spray from Amazon... In the sixties the girls used to say "Wow you smell nice"... When my bottle arrives and I don it I foresee my grandchildren saying "Phew grandad, what is that awful pong"? 😆 P.S. I still have a nearly full bottle of the original "Old Spice"... I rarely use any smellies these days but I put some Old Spice on a few weeks ago and stunk the house out... 🤣
I'll tell ya, this still smells really damn good. Don't have the cologne, but I always have a 7 ounce bottle of splash-on laying around. Usually wear Azzaro Pour Homme, or Paco Rabanne Pour Homme, or Drakkar but this morning splashed some of this old classic on and didn't regret it at all. I love this for pretty much the same reason I like Azzaro Pour Homme. That wonderful anise note, mixed with that leathery shaving foam vibe. Classic masterpiece.👍
I can smell those just by looking at the screen. My grandfather used that scent. He's been gone for over 30 years, but I can still feel him. Including smelling his scent.
I’m in the United States and I used to wear Brut back in the mid 90’s. I decided to pick a bottle up yesterday, and it is definitely not like it used to be… it almost has a baby powder sent as opposed to the nice strong masculine scent it used to have. I’m pretty bummed because I was excited to start wearing it again. Then, I was going to pick up a bottle of English Leather and I can’t find that anywhere. Brut and English Leather were my favorites as a young man.
Brings back memories Paul. I was a Brut wearer back in the day, I see it at the local drug stores now but it’s just a shadow of its old formula. Maybe I’ll pick up a new bottle just to have it around in my collection. Thanks Paul, I always look forward to your RUclips productions, I am hooked. Best to you and your lovely wife. ( btw: I really enjoy your little chats about Sunday dinner.) ...bless you Paul you’re a fine man.
Hi Paul, I was lucky enough to purchase the original faberge brut silver medallion on ebay as in the video. A full bottle never opened. The scent is absolutely remarkable. Very happy i have one now.
Brut 33 is the plastic bottle, but it's no longer called Brut 33. OG formula is now called Brut Special Reserve, while 33 is now just simply called Brut and is very widely available at drug stores and supermarkets.
Great video on Brut. I pick up a bottle, from anywhere, UK, Europe, Asia, Australia, etc. just for fun. Every morning, one week I will use the one from the UK, next week the one from Europe, so & so forth. Not to compare with the Brut from East Coast US, but just for fun. A little aftershave every morning, goes a long way. Best. James 'Jay' Hind. N.Y.C. Oct 14 2018
Thanks Paul for the memories I remember Brut when I was was a kid my uncles would use it. another popular classic from about that time was Hai Karate aftershave.
I just bought and tried the Brut Classic Aftershave and it was awesome! It felt good on the skin after a DE shave and the scent took me back. Go out and get some to add to your collection.
Been using the new style brut ordered a original faberge off eBay man you were not kidding the original is great smelling and lasted all day now I’m hooked on the old original
+Ivan Machuca Brutworld USA has told me that the limited edition 25.6 oz Brut Bottle on steroids that's sold in the USA and made by Helen of Troy/Idelle Labs is based on the original formula. I bought if over the holidays and the scent lasted for over 5 hours. See my longer post here. See if you can find youself a bottle of Brut Dominant (orange bottle) which is excellent. I posted a longer comment here that you might enjoy.
I have the same original Brut as you have. The splash on with the silver top, same black and silver sticker below, and the silver medallion. It also has a Faberge stamp at the bottom of the flask. Mine has about the double amount as in your flask. Bought it from a widow that sold her late husbands fragrances on a used market website here in Norway. It's my crown jewel of my collection. I have never smelled any other fragrance that comes close to Brut, I've never tried the copies and I never will. Paid about 20£ for it. My best fragrance purchase ever. It has such a man's scent, it's not for the youngsters, that's for sure. You have to be a man to wear this. But after 40+ years, it's only projecting for 3-4 hours. But I don't care, I wear this for myself.
I used the Brut anti-perspirant deodorant daily back in high school. And I recently purchased the glass bottle after shave and to me they smell completely different. Oh well, memories.
I have a bottle of eau de toilette in the flask shaped bottle it is a lighter color not dark green liquid like yours. But it smells like the original and lasts longer than the special reserve we have here in the states.
Ive been listening to 80s music this afternoon. It took me back to some GREAT times. The upshot of it was, that i got an urge to wear Brut again (like i did in the 80s). I have a collection of about 70 modern day frags, from "cheapies" up to more expensive frags, Like Perfume De Marly Layton.
Another great vid Paul. Brut, Old Spice real classics. Also Paul, I see you have gone over 5,000 subscribers, Well done mate. I'm already looking forward to the midweek shave, Can not wait.
Brut Classic Splash-on in the USA is made in Mexico. It is strong first applied and fades over a few hours. Not sure where it fits with the three you show as currently for sale in the UK.
Nice informative video Paul. I use it because my dad loved it and it reminds me of the old man, now gone sadly. I'm sure if the Incredible Hulk shaves he would definitely use Brut as a splash on after shave! Cheers Glenn
انا اعشق بروت ، وللاسف لم يعد من الممكن الحصول على بروت في بلدي ، انا بين فترة واخرى ادخل لمشاهدة هذا الفديو .. ومع اني لاافهم الانجليزية الا انني اشعر انك تتحدث عن بروت بـ قدسية
Excellent comparison video. Unfortunately, the Eau de Toilette isn't available here in the US. However, the Eau de Toilette is available in the UK from Amazon. I'll be picking up a bottle today for my hubby. Thx for the review :)
It's difficult to find the original Brut in the glass bottle in the United States, but I can still get the cologne, the aftershave and the splash-on in the plastic bottles.
It can be difficult to get here too, the original Faberge anyway....the modern glass bottle version is available in a lot of stores here thankfully....all the best...Paul.
I remember that one well and I used to get it as a Christmas gift every year from my family members I had a whole medicine cabinet full of that stuff!!
They still sell a glass bottle with the medallion in the U.S. It says "Special Reserve-Spray Cologne" under the medallion and on the back says Idelle Labs, Ltd. El Paso, TX 79912. The one I have comes in a 3 fl. oz bottle.
pimpingmrli Hello, yes, I also have that one, it's one of the Helen Of Troy formulations Idelle Labs the one they make in the big 25 oz bottle is the one closest to the original, but only with the Brut 33 range strength, I can recomend you to search for Brut Faberge on ebay with all the juice in for good longlivety..
Paul there is a DE Razor I 100% recommend and it is the Razorock Mission which you can get for $19.99 from Italian barber and it comes with a few packs of blades from different manufacturers , this razor is King, Jock Stewart.
Great video paul - ill give my impressions when i see you - good to see the bottle getting some love as im sure it hasnt been out of that cabinet in a good 20 years, and used in - as you suggested about 45. hope the lovely lady enjoyed the smells :D
Excellent video.. We all have memories of Brut the original by Fabergé .. Funnily enough I was never a big fan of Brut ! I hope u can do a similar video about Tabac original. Which is one of my favourite cologens, sadly not the same anymore too ! Thanks...
Thanks, yes the trouble today is the modern versions can be so different than the original, I have Tabac, but not the original sadly.....all the best and have a great weekend......Paul.
One very rare thing about Tabac, it's still manufactured by the same guys "M & W" , since it was launched 60 years ago.. Ain't that amazin... Thanx 4 your reply...:-)
I am a fun of Brut all the way ! In Greece it was quite popular for many years especially in the 90´s. I do want to purchase the one with the gold medalion ! Regardless if i rare shave i went to buy the Old Spice and was really dissapointed..I bought it in Greece and in Germany but it doesnt remind me the strong ,penetrating scent .Anyway ,nice video and keep up the good work.
+PaulHFilms I do have a small 3/8 fluid ounce "glass" bottle of Brute EAU DE Cologne that is old as the hills. Might be a sample bottle I picked up somewhere. Says FABERGE made in USA on the back. It looks full to the top, possibly never opened. There is a number on the back too, #419761. I would be happy to drop it in the mail to you. Send me your address if you want it. Take care, Ossie
I bought the Glass Bottle Aftershave. I been so despertate to sniff it again. I wanted to be transported back to the 80s. I LOVE the smell of it, but it only lasts about 30 mins on my skin......and i have really good skin for most modern frags, as many last hours and hours and hours on me.
People make jokes about Brut but It has a very pleasant and distinct smell that takes you back to days gone by. I buy the aftershave, the only trouble is the aroma doesn't last very long.
+The Green Knight I'm not sure if you live in the USA, but the Brut Special Reserve in the 3 oz glass bottle is pretty strong and lasts awhile. I've been told the Brut cologne in the huge 25.6 oz. glass bottle is based on the original formula. See my longer comment here.
My dad says it not the same as when he had it back in his day It's cheaper version and said its definitely been watered down he only had to put a little on him but today is you need half bottle to get any affect 🤔 😉
Buonissimo, ho comprato in italia la versione originale dell brut,proprio come quello del nonno del suo amico..è uno store che vende profumi rari..il brut è in confezione di cartone marrone con due cerchi avvolti dal filo per la chiusura..è buonissimo,quelli di oggi non assomigliano nemmeno al vecchio brut.
Faberge also made a real nice smelling woman's perfume that a girlfriend of mine used to wear. It was called Tigress. You can find some original bottles on Ebay but will have to pay a pretty penny for it.
I still love Brut Cologne. But they don't make it like the original. He's right the original used to have all day staying power. Not only that but it seemed to mix or smell a little different/better with your body sweat or body odor as the day wore on. It seemed the more you sweated or got hot, the stronger,the better it smelled. And when you took a shower it came back to life.I'm going to look for it online because all I see is cheap knock offs in the stores.
Lovely video. Big fan of Brut as well, It's my daily scent. But if you don't mind me asking, what sort of ring is that? I've seen Chas from Chas & Dave wearing one just like it, and I love it. Cheers.
HI, I been watch this video and am Brut lover ,did had comment from you but unfortunately my account has been deleted. Just want to say hi, and I am glad this video are on you tube still.
Hi Paul great video ahh! Brut. Barry sheen, takes me right back. Try leaving the top off the modern bottle and let some of the spirits evaporate, I'm sure the original is a more concentrated smell due to evaporation. P.s nice to see you dressed for the occasion lol. Only one thing missing the medallion and the goucho moustache.
nice comparison pual! Brut is damn good i use the splash after a good shave even that has good longevity and some folks ask what I'm wearing lol! lots of ladies smiling 😀or maybe i am handsome after all lmao! ahhh must be the Brut!
Love the smell of Brut. Still wear it sometimes. Probably not as sophisticated as some of todays fragrances though I'm told its becoming trendy again. I see there's now an advert with Vinnie Jones.
Good video Paul. I wondered what the differences were between the different bottles. By the way, I was in Wilko's last week and they had the Brut in the squarer glass bottle for £3.50 (and Old Spice Original ASL for £6). Bargain! Cheers.
I love Brut but the Brut I get now is not the same at all and when I splash it on the top comes out and it runs out of the bottle . So that means that it as been played with . The great saying is splash it all over
Dear sir, i have the Brut eau de toilette in the same bottle with you but not the gold edition. It is exactly the same but with metal color Brut logo and cap. Do you know about this edition? Compare to Brut eau de toilette original in yellow bottles, the Brut for men is stronger in smell.
What about the original after shave in the glass bottle? Is it any good? I'm want to buy some aftershave closest to the original.. All I can get in the States is the Classic aftershave.
Hi Paul: I use to always see Brut by faberge ,I would never wear it but the aroma is very nice regardless...Its amazing what aromas will take you back for sure...I was watching a Lady on you tube ,a Nadine Artemis here handle was" Living in libations" very interesting and informative in regards to essential oils ,People don't realize how good these oils are for us-check it out Paul you may like it....
The original Eau Sauvage from 1966 is another one that brings me right back. Amazing how a scent can totally transport you back like nothing else can. Not photos, not even music. It's so primal and goes directly to longterm memories and emotions.
Met my husband in 1972 ,using Brut.
2020,married for 45 yrs,still uses Brut!
That is fantastic, regards to you both Anna :-)

Thank you for sharing that with us, amazing he worked for Faberge. All the best.
I love the retro and dated scents - Brut original always puts me in a good mood after a good shave :)
Love Brut. I'm 43, reminds me of my dad and his friends heading off to play skittles. I've bought all of the brut products. You're spot one with the eu a de toilette. That's the closest.

There is a bottle made in Mexico I think which is 757ml (huge bottle!) and will probably last several lifetimes. I got a bottle online for £30 or so and it is exactly like the original in every way and lasts all day. Worth a look for those interested.
No product today comes close to the Faberge original. Unilever produces the fragrance from partly artificial substances. Thanks Paul for the video. I also have an old bottle from the nineties. It's amazing that it's still intact. It smells like the first day and is absolutely unique. It's a shame it's no longer available. Greetings from Germany
Fantastic video!
Brute, Old Spice, and Clubman are classic barbershop aftershaves!
My dad and the Brute scent will forever be linked. Saw it at the store this weekend and said “why not”.
Excellent cologne and aftershave. Wonderful review!
I usually wear Old Spice. Recently started wearing Brut also, cause my wife's dad wore both, and she suggested I do the same. He'd wear Old Spice one week, then Brut the next week.

I used to wear Brut cologne. I got some for Christmas, when I was young, and I'm not sure why I quit using it.
I used to "drown" myself with Brut before I went on a date in the late 1960's. I still use Brut aftershave today. Thanks for the video!.

Hi Paul,
I was lucky enough to purchase the original faberge brut silver medallion on ebay as in the video. A full bottle never opened. The scent is absolutely remarkable.
Very happy i have one now.
That's great, nice isn't it... :-)
The brut with the silver on the bottle is brut 33.

Thanks Paul . The Original Brut was a Brut , Strong and Lasted ! It wasn't called Brut for nothing , not a wimp .
I have the same original Brut as you have. The splash on with the silver top, same black and silver sticker below, and the silver medallion. It also has a Faberge stamp at the bottom of the flask.

Got a lot of fond Brut memories, Paul!
i just bought a bottel of brut my dad still wares it today its like a farther/son tradition
I have a bottle of eau de toilette in the flask shaped bottle it is a lighter color not dark green liquid like yours. But it smells like the original and lasts longer than the special reserve we have here in the states.
Sounds great, and longer lasting I should think.....all the best....Paul.
Ive been listening to 80s music this afternoon. It took me back to some GREAT times. The upshot of it was, that i got an urge to wear Brut again (like i did in the 80s). I have a collection of about 70 modern day frags, from "cheapies" up to more expensive frags, Like Perfume De Marly Layton.
I saw this in Tesco the other day ,might pick it up next time in there.
Thanks for explaining everything about Brut

We wore Brut in the 60s. It was expensive and not widely known. We frequented the Twisted Wheel club in Manchester UK We considered ourselves elite.
As a kid I use to go crazy for English Leather
I remember that one well and I used to get it as a Christmas gift every year from my family members I had a whole medicine cabinet full of that stuff!!

Old school scent and is a classic🙂
The splash on is the renamed Brut 33. It's only a third strength of the original.
Excellent video.. We all have memories of Brut the original by Fabergé .. Funnily enough I was never a big fan of Brut ! I hope u can do a similar video about Tabac original. Which is one of my favourite cologens, sadly not the same anymore too ! Thanks...
Thanks, yes the trouble today is the modern versions can be so different than the original, I have Tabac, but not the original sadly.....all the best and have a great weekend......Paul.
One very rare thing about Tabac, it's still manufactured by the same guys "M & W" , since it was launched 60 years ago.. Ain't that amazin... Thanx 4 your reply...:-)
Definitely gonna try some of this. I like old spice too. 👌
I am a fun of Brut all the way ! In Greece it was quite popular for many years especially in the 90´s. I do want to purchase the one with the gold medalion ! Regardless if i rare shave i went to buy the Old Spice and was really dissapointed..I bought it in Greece and in Germany but it doesnt remind me the strong ,penetrating scent .Anyway ,nice video and keep up the good work.
Nice one Paul. That was my first aftershave I bought back in 1969. I'm getting old! Take care, Ossie
+Ossie Weinert If you still had it, it would be worth a bit now..lol.
+PaulHFilms I do have a small 3/8 fluid ounce "glass" bottle of Brute EAU DE Cologne that is old as the hills. Might be a sample bottle I picked up somewhere. Says FABERGE made in USA on the back. It looks full to the top, possibly never opened. There is a number on the back too, #419761. I would be happy to drop it in the mail to you. Send me your address if you want it. Take care, Ossie
Ossie Weinert Iam fifteen and this is my first ever aftershave i bought😉
old memories are fresh again
Original harsh and very lovely.
I still love all those scents from the 1970s, Brut among them.
+Mike MakesRight Right down memory lane aren't they.
I bought the Glass Bottle Aftershave. I been so despertate to sniff it again. I wanted to be transported back to the 80s. I LOVE the smell of it, but it only lasts about 30 mins on my skin......and i have really good skin for most modern frags, as many last hours and hours and hours on me.
I am 35 and bought the aftershave and the body lotion. I find it lasts about an hour on me but I usually wear it after a shower before bed haha
Just smelling Brut makes me happy.
My very favorite scent. I wish the unilever one in the square glass had more staying power.
i like both brut and old spice
Very nice. Thank you.
Thanks.
People make jokes about Brut but It has a very pleasant and distinct smell that takes you back to days gone by. I buy the aftershave, the only trouble is the aroma doesn't last very long.
+The Green Knight I'm not sure if you live in the USA, but the Brut Special Reserve in the 3 oz glass bottle is pretty strong and lasts awhile. I've been told the Brut cologne in the huge 25.6 oz. glass bottle is based on the original formula. See my longer comment here.
+The Green Knight The comment below may help from Shave-a-thon....also the Eau De Toilette lasted. .
Someone I know, 69 years old this year, asking for brut as gift 😀 this video really helps!
I love product Brut...fantastic!!!!
Brut is my signature since 1991
Whats the deferent between brut with gold medal and silver medal
My dad says it not the same as when he had it back in his day It's cheaper version and said its definitely been watered down he only had to put a little on him but today is you need half bottle to get any affect 🤔 😉
¿How about the "special preserved" version, any good?
Buonissimo, ho comprato in italia la versione originale dell brut,proprio come quello del nonno del suo amico..è uno store che vende profumi rari..il brut è in confezione di cartone marrone con due cerchi avvolti dal filo per la chiusura..è buonissimo,quelli di oggi non assomigliano nemmeno al vecchio brut.
Faberge also made a real nice smelling woman's perfume that a girlfriend of mine used to wear. It was called Tigress. You can find some original bottles on Ebay but will have to pay a pretty penny for it.
Sounds interesting, didn't know about the ladies version....thanks....Paul.
I still love Brut Cologne. But they don't make it like the original. He's right the original used to have all day staying power. Not only that but it seemed to mix or smell a little different/better with your body sweat or body odor as the day wore on. It seemed the more you sweated or got hot, the stronger,the better it smelled. And when you took a shower it came back to life.I'm going to look for it online because all I see is cheap knock offs in the stores.

Lovely video. Big fan of Brut as well, It's my daily scent. But if you don't mind me asking, what sort of ring is that? I've seen Chas from Chas & Dave wearing one just like it, and I love it. Cheers.
Thank you, the ring is a signet ring I 've had for over 20 years Chris.
HI, I been watch this video and am Brut lover ,did had comment from you but unfortunately my account has been deleted. Just want to say hi, and I am glad this video are on you tube still.
Hi Paul great video ahh! Brut. Barry sheen, takes me right back. Try leaving the top off the modern bottle and let some of the spirits evaporate, I'm sure the original is a more concentrated smell due to evaporation. P.s nice to see you dressed for the occasion lol. Only one thing missing the medallion and the goucho moustache.
Just got old spice and brut splash on and after shave yesterday. Where can I get the eau de toilette?
nice comparison pual! Brut is damn good i use the splash after a good shave even that has good longevity and some folks ask what I'm wearing lol! lots of ladies smiling 😀or maybe i am handsome after all lmao! ahhh must be the Brut!
+Juan Lujan Great isn't it...maybe your looks and the scent combined...is a winner :-)
I wanted to ask pual now that it is fresh on my mind gillette wilkinson sword vs classic blades is there a difference or is it the same blade?
Brut is a very manly scent so when women smell it on you it brings out the masculine side which women love
Love the smell of Brut. Still wear it sometimes. Probably not as sophisticated as some of todays fragrances though I'm told its becoming trendy again. I see there's now an advert with Vinnie Jones.
I love BRUT!!!!
Me too mark😍
Good video Paul. I wondered what the differences were between the different bottles. By the way, I was in Wilko's last week and they had the Brut in the squarer glass bottle for £3.50 (and Old Spice Original ASL for £6). Bargain! Cheers.
+Geraint Jones Good prices...all the best..Paul.
is there a difference between the gold and silver version? i found the same edt bottle but it's silver not gold, how do they compare?
One of my favorites thing in the world
I love Brut but the Brut I get now is not the same at all and when I splash it on the top comes out and it runs out of the bottle . So that means that it as been played with . The great saying is splash it all over
In the UK you can get the square bottle for £3 in B&M. At that price who could resist😀
The splash on lotions are about 4 £ aswell
Dear sir, i have the Brut eau de toilette in the same bottle with you but not the gold edition. It is exactly the same but with metal color Brut logo and cap. Do you know about this edition?
Compare to Brut eau de toilette original in yellow bottles, the Brut for men is stronger in smell.
What about the original after shave in the glass bottle? Is it any good? I'm want to buy some aftershave closest to the original.. All I can get in the States is the Classic aftershave.
Hi Paul: I use to always see Brut by faberge ,I would never wear it but the aroma is very nice regardless...Its amazing what aromas will take you back for sure...I was watching a Lady on you tube ,a Nadine Artemis here handle was" Living in libations"
very interesting and informative in regards to essential oils ,People don't realize how good these oils are for us-check it out Paul you may like it....
I bought the Brut Special Reserve online. It smells great.
