125 Years Your Companion For Life
by Victorinox Swiss Army
A uniquely aromatic and slightly bitter masculine fragrance with a green, earthy core. The opening features crisp cardamom and grapefruit, leading into a bittersweet cacao pod heart layered with fresh hay and larch, evoking a raw, time-worn timber or field after rain. The drydown reveals a soft, slightly sweet tonka bean and subtle creaminess, grounding the boldness. It feels practical, laid-back, and utterly unpretentious—suitable for work, casual outings, or everyday wear. Longevity is moderate, lasting up to six hours, with a sillage that is moderate to strong. The scent carries a distinct hay note that many find almost organically authentic, while others experience it as overly dominant or uncomfortable. Despite this divisive quality, it earns consistent praise for being affordable, well-blended, and a safe blind buy for fans of spicy-woody, aromatic fragrances.
