Latest Reviews of Executive
Long discontinued, hard to find. The fresh bloom of youth has faded from this vintage juice.
Basically, it is a nice chypre in the citrus-herbal vein, with a bit of pepper spice and a real old-school mossy drydown. Not sweet, not heavy.
I don't see much similarity to Eau Sauvage. I have the (basic) Executive and perhaps it has some affinity to Carven Vetiver (a mossy sort of scent) though Executive lacks the rootsy-woody vetiver of Carven.
I don't think this vintage juice is worth big bucks or great efforts to acquire. It is a charming but basic thing, a solid and somewhat simple men's chypre typical of the 70's.

Anorak News: Atkinson's Executive (Original Dry): There is a distinction between Atkinson's Executive and Atkinson's Executive Original Dry. The first is an Eau Sauvage lookalike. The second, as the name suggests, is an altogether drier proposition, more like a cousin of Carven Vetiver perhaps.
