About this deal

Today, in our Vintages section, we will talk about the very popular and inexpensive men's fragrance Blue Stratos, released by the American company Shulton in 1974. Of course, the most famous Shulton scent is Old Spice - we covered the cologne in this review of its female forerunner, in the article "Our Fathers' Colognes" and in the article "How Old Spice Has Always Remained New."

The brand started this image change by expanding the range of their men's fragrances in the 1960s, releasing five fragrances in 14 years - York Town 1781, Teak, Old Spice Lime, Old Spice Burley, Old Spice Musk For Men, and Eastern Spice. Judging by the fact that the fragrances were discontinued long ago and that in 1970 the company experienced the first sales drop in its history, none of these attempts was successful. In 1971, Shulton became part of American Cyanamide, and with new financial support, they launched a new fragrance in 1974, Blue Stratos. Sillage - probably weaker than it should be. For you and people close to you to enjoy. Spray more if you want to project more.When I first encountered Blue Stratos in 1991, in a family bathroom during a visit, I knew nothing about it and had seen no adverts. I just opened the blue bottle to smell it - and the first thing that came to my mind was a soft and watered-down Kouros Yves Saint-Laurent. Now I understand better why - the shared citruses, patchouli, and fougère skeleton and a clear animalistic touch do give the fragrances some similarity. They both evoke the clean center of a house - the family bathroom. But Blue Stratos is much lighter and weaker - non-intrusive and at the same time very refreshing due to oranges and lavender. the photography may be of a different size of the same product. Please read the product description The EDT of Blue Stratos seems to be more rapidly faithful to the notes than the aftershave (which is foolishly offered in a spray rather than a splash). The aftershave has a sharper alcohol opening before anything starts to happen and I can imagine impatient people leaving it on the shelf after testing it. This review is for the EDT, though the two do have the same scent. All new bottles no longer have the sleek shiny cap, instead having a clumsy anodised matt cap.

Blue Stratos | Three Pears Brands

The base notes settle into woody vanilla, with faint citrus and florals still discernible. The scent is well-rounded and becomes mellow, quite refined and more masculine during the transition between middle and basenotes. Many children of the 70s and 80s will have an olfactory memory of Blue Stratos; either aftershave or talcum powder and if the scent has been reformulated at all, it hasn't changed all that much. Pour a small amount into the palm of your hand and apply evenly over the beard area before shaving. Blue Stratos Original Pre-Electric Shaving Lotion helps aid a closer and more comfortable shave with your electric shaver with the cool exhilarating sensation of Blue Stratos. Not the most dressy casual scent, the refreshing and bouncy Blue Stratos is reminiscent of a well-worn blue jeans but still equally suitable for work and weekends. This is also reflected in some artifacts of history (see photo below). The latest news was that in 2020, the brand was acquired from the British cosmetics company Three Pears Brands, to Dutch Remark Groep, which produces Blue Stratos now.

Terms and Conditions of return

not be liable for any direct, indirect or consequential loss or damage arising under these terms and It's probably a daytime scent, though this is a matter of taste and what works for a person's skin. Someone's review referred to it as 'inoffensive' and it is. It's cheap (in price), but it certainly isn't nasty. And so I give it a thumbs up. Our liability is limited and excluded to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law. We will
