Fantastic old school list, yet still allrelevant today. Just a testament to how these scents have held up over time - there's a reason brands like Bond have re-released the classics, and it certainly wasn't because of lack of demand for it. Also a reason scents like GIT continue to be stalwarts for Creed, despite the outrageous price these days. Wishing you a HNY for 2023, it's amazing to be seeing your videos once again, certainly brings me and a lot of others much joy. Wishing you a tremendous 2023 and beyond!
