I just bought a NOS vintage bottle of
Avon Brisk Spice cologne in hopes that it would be a little stronger than vintage
Shulton Old Spice AS. I had read for years that the long discod.
Avon Brisk Spice in either AS or cologne version was a perfect dupe for
Shulton Old Spice. The good news is that it is. The bad news is that it really doesn't project any more than
OS nor last longer. Just out of curiosity I did a SxS test comparing the
Avon Brisk Spice cologne with
B&M Reserve Spice AS and they are so, so very close, but the latter has such a rich & beautiful opening
. I just wish it was stronger as I love it so much. And yes, I have owned/used vintage
Shulton Old Spice cologne, but it doesn't really last longer than the AS as regards scent IMO.
On another note, Will at
B&M has told me that there may be a
Reserve Spice EdT or parfum in the future!!
