Floris Original

[Oscroft]

Is anyone here a fan of the discontinued Floris Original Gentlemen's Cologne?

I ask because I just got a small bottle of it on eBay for £5 (about $8). It doesn't say what size it is, but it's about 30ml.

At first it opens a bit like No 89, and for a moment I was disappointed - I already have a bottle of that. But after a very short time it develops into something amazing - rich florals, and then something that seems animalic, but I can't identify it.

Strangely, it doesn't seem to be on the Basenotes or Fragrantica databases, so I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about this fantastic stuff?

Just checking and could find nothing until I looked at ebay to see Floris Elite Original Cologne advertised in that price range. Is it Elite?

No, it's not Elite - I know Elite and it's not similar. This is just labeled "Floris Original Gentlemen's Cologne".

The eBay listing is here - the photo isn't very good.

Only suggestion I have then is to contact Floris.
