Men's Care
Atkinsons (2003)

Shades of several Atkinsons frags of the past - some Royal Briar, a touch of Executive, some I Coloniali Guajaco Wood and a trad EDC type opening from Gold Medal, all blended into a citrusy, woody, gently spicy modern (but not aquatic or ozonic) approach to an old world type scent. Men's Care is largely successful, although the power and longevity of all the aforementioned frags seems to have been left out in favour of a slow, gentle burn. This isn't necessarily a bad thing as, unlike most of those older frags, Men's Care lends itself to being worn in most situations quite comfortably. It also reminds me a lot of Azzaro Pure Cedrat, with less sillage. The biggest props for Men's Care go to the price point - 100ml of EDT which smells like it's made with pretty good ingredients for £6.99. Can't give it anything but a thumbs up.
