Czech & Speake No. 88 Eau de Parfum

Smells nice. Doest last at all for being a EDP

I am really disappointed with the delivery of No. 88 eua de parfum 50ml.
Unlike all other bottles it is not holding its scent. I am wondering age of stock or product mishap.
The tester samples are also very unappealing on their scents and notes.
Really to support an Australian local company but really unhappy with the product purchased.

Czech & Speake's No.88 would not have been out of place residing on Sweeny Todd's Barbershop vanity; it embodies a sense of late Victorian England with qualities are gothic, dark and predatory. Quite possibly the ultimate masculine rose, No. 88 is steeped with dark florals over a simmering heart of cassis: a note reminiscent of fragrant cinnamon; the overall effect being one of fragrant incense sticks and pink musk lollies. It rests over a warm foundation of sandalwood and vetiver, lending a damp earthiness upon which the composition is held aloft. It evokes an image of dozens of velvet red roses resting on a freshly-turned grave.
Ive always adored the Cologne version since I first encountered it in the mid-late 2000's, but the EDP has amplified all the qualities I adore. A head-turning compliment-catcher, I've always enjoyed reactions from those around me; we seem unanimous in regarding it as something unique and singular. As a scent which is both charming and dapper but with a renegade 'Peaky Blinders' leaning, I'm certain over time it will continue to garner a greater following of men (and ladies) who recognise and adore it's non-conforming 'otherness'
