Blue Stratos Eau De Toilette

Cheap but just like original and smells lovely - like the 70s !!

Its a shame you can only attach a photo and not upload a scratch-and-sniff ;-) I'm old enough to have worn Blue Stratos way back in I think the early to mid 1980s. I don't commonly wear any kind of cologne / scented aftershave / EDT these days, very rarely even when going out. And I find many fragrances quite overpowering and even unpleasant. However Blue Stratos is a lovely light and fresh scent that I do find really soft and pleasant. The current iteration isn't quite as I remember it but its still very clean and fresh. I think its lost some of its cutting citrusy sharpness and seems to have more of a pronounced 'talcum powder' scent that is perhaps based on iris/orris notes. Its comforting and clean, but not as sharp and 'cold' as it used to be. I think for the price this is ridiculously good value and outperforms fragrances costing ten times the price. If you buy with your nose and ignore brand snobbery, this really is hard to beat.

I've recently gotten into Blue Stratos. Love the fragrance so much I bought all the other products in the range! The EDT is no different and smells just like the deodorants and pre-shave lotion etc. The price is ridiculous. Can't believe it is so cheap. The profit margins must be wafer-thin and you can see they've cut back every penny they can from the production costs. The lid feels particularly cheap with how it fits on the bottle and can lean from side-to-side. I hope the atomiser is better quality else I wouldn't fancy it surviving long enough for me to use up the entire 100ml! It does spray well, but the atomisers on the clones frequency fail after 30ml or so I'm nervous about this one! Scent is lovely but it's a bit weak (no stronger than the deodorant), which is why I give it 4 stars. Honestly I'd rather pay more for a stronger scent. I mean this is laughably cheap and a third or quarter the price of even those "clone" fragrances you buy online! If this was the strength of a premium brand like Chanel, I'd gladly pay £60 rather than £6. Or even if they sold it for say the same price as Joop e.g. £25 and increased the strength, I'd be throwing my money at them. Still, on the plus side it's so cheap you can wear this a daily and just spray it on after your shower even if you aren't going out.

It smells great. My husband loves it It's a rich fruity smell that me and our female friends love..

Smells very strongly, like something your unvle would wear at a wedding

Excellent value.

Love it

It doesn’t smell as I remember but still quite nice. Not very strong but at this price you can’t complain.

Toller Duft.

Comprei para recordar um perfume que usei nos anos 80 e que julgava ter sido descontinuado. Correspondeu ao que esperava.

Classic edt from the 90's

Arrived on time, hubby well pleased as he didn't think it was still manufactured. It's a favourite of his & brought memories back from times gone by. Surprisingly how the smell jogs the memory.
