Brut Original Deodorant

I remember an advert for Brut from the 1990s, IIRC. I believe that Kate Moss was in it and the slogan was "The Essence Of Man". This made Brut seem extremely "posh" and refined, lol. Nowadays, of course, it's been advertised by former footballer and "hard man" Vinnie Jones. How times and attitudes have changed, lol...
 
I have both Habit Rouge and Knize Ten and have always been struck by the similarities between the two (this may well have been documented by others). Both share top notes of bergamot and lemon, middle notes of cedarwood, rose, carnation, cinnamon and sandalwood and base notes of leather, moss, amber and vanilla. There are, of course, differences e.g. HR throws in some patchouli and loses the castoreum. KT, I reckon, is a bit more powdery. I confess that my uneducated nose struggles to pick out the leather in either. Anyway, today it was the Guerlain …
