Tailspin Lucien Lelong for women

This has the truest galbanum note I've smelled in a long time, the same I recognize in some galbanum-heavy naturals. It's lovely! A light-wearing, fresh green with tea notes and sap-heavy florals.

I just received a beautiful four oz. vintage bottle of Tailspin Cologne. I disagree with the reviewer on Basenotes. This is a lovely simple floral that is not too sweet. For that reason, I can certainly see this one being unisex. The notes are totally intact in this vintage even though my bottle was manufactured prior to the use of zip codes (started in 1963). It must have been well stored. The nose behind this and LL Indiscret is Jean Carles of Miss Dior fame.

For you that love being unique, this is the ticket. The fragrance is rare.

I will get back later with the longevity. The sillage is extraordinary for a cologne. It is smelling better and better as time goes on. I think many of the vintage colognes are stronger than the current EDTs.

The top notes are very similar to Fumerie Turque, rich tobacco note, but in the middle it becames powdery and tender. Unobtrusive fragance. I don't think it's floral green, to my nose it's chypre floral.
