I bought "Halston" when it was first released, and i recently gave it a try again, from my old bottle (i have always kept my perfumes out of heat and sunlight). And i still really like it.

It is *very* strong. I love chypres, and it is very woody and mossy, tempered by flowers (i've never noticed the fruits). Plus it also always seemed to have a hint of the metallic to me. It was very modern at the time of its release. And while it has the intensity of a 70s perfume, it still retains some rather contemporary aspects as well.

Leesee smells "Charlie" in it, but i don't. In fact, i detested "Charlie", which always smelled "cheap" to me. Perhaps it's a difference in our noses or our skin chemistry.

"Halston" was a revelation when it was first launched, and now it is a classic.

One of the first couturiers of the modern era to aggressively market a "designer" scent, Halston paved the way for relative newbies like Calvin Klein, Diane Von Furstenberg, and other fixtures of the Studio 54 era. The scent, which has always reminded me a bit of Revlon's Charlie in overall impact, is a citrusy, strident, even "ballsy" composition, just perfect for discoing the night away. Arguably, Halston set the standard for the breezy, faintly unisex scents that soon followed, including Lauren, Calvin Klein for Women, and Geoffrey Beene's Red. Almost as quickly as Halston became a "scentsation," however, it found itself completely and permanently eclipsed by the Viking-strength scents of the 1980s.

Ich hatte es schon mal vor 20 Jahren und war begeistert. Jetzt habe ich es mir wieder gekauft und es gefällt mir immer noch genauso gut. Es ist einfach zeitlos.
Sogar das Eau de Cologne hält den ganzen Tag.

I had it already times before 20 years and was enthusiastic. Now I bought it to me again and please it me still just as well. It is simply timeless.
Even the Eau de Cologne holds all day long.

I love this Halston perfume. I discovered it from a girlfriend in 1978 and have only worn this since. My mother bought me another of Halston's perfumes for my birthday once and I gave it away couldn't stand the smell. I have never been able to find any other scent I could love as much and the matching body lotion is perfect although harder to find.

I really wish I could wear this one. It smells lovely on my aunt, my sister and a co-worker who sometimes wears it. On these ladies, Halston is a warm, soft, sexy fragrance. Woodsy, slightly musky, with just a hint of feminine floral. On them it's a "your skin, but better!" kind of scent. On my own skin, it's sharp, sour and unpleasant. Didn't even smell like the same perfume at all. I guess it's true that every perfume reacts differently based on your individual chemistry. Halston is living proof of this!

My mom had this and I thought and still think it stinks. It's just to strong for me. I like the sweeter floral and woodsy scents better.

A typical seventies perfume, a bit harsh, not very feminine, greenish, with a patchouli/vetiver base.
It goes well with suntan and cigarettes, glam rock, safari cothes and unprotected sex - a very retro repertoire.
