The 90ml bottle allowed you to un-screw the vaporiser and refill from the splash bottles.

Answer:
I have a 120ml splash bottle of Patou PH EDT, and a 60ml splash bottle of Patou PH Prive EDT. The bottles and cap, as has been stated, are of superb quality. The caps are engineered to screw down very tightly on the bottles after exactly three turns of them, tightening sequentially as they go, in effect sealing the bottles. I was worried I was going to break something when I first put the cap back on one of the bottles.

I don't splash them on my hands, but use a cotton ball to efficiently use the scents without spilling or overapplying. I am liking ever more to apply scents with a cotton ball; you can get the scent where you want it and with how much, but approximating an atomizer better than a roll-on does.

I'm also reluctant to label Patou PH as the best men's scent ever, but it is ridiculously classy and of very high quality. It is an icon of sorts, among the last brilliant flame of the then-fading (1980) halcyon days of perfume-making.

So...I just got some feedback from a friend on BN, and he has tried the scent before and we have similar taste in perfumes. He said it was a nice scent buy kinda like a grampa scent, but he said it was like the grampa of all grampa scents. He didn't say it was a bad scent just a little outdated in his opionon.
I do like scents like BdP, Floris No. 89, New York, etc.....but I'll put off wearing them till I mature a little, LOL , but thanks anyways for the help and all the info.
BTW, for people who want to test PPH without shelling out a ton of cash. You can get a 10ml mini of PPH from this site, costing you about 25 bucks US, and their international shipping is dirt cheap, something like 5 bucks for purchases under 200 dollars, and free after that.

Answer:
I've been wearing Patou a lot lately and I love it. I don't think there is such a thing as grandpa scents. I do admit this one is manly and sophisticated but hey us young guys can smell sophisticated too. This isn't for a young guy going to a club. It's too finely made for that. It's for a nice formal dinner but I've even been wearing it to work.

I'll also do decants if anyone is interested

Originally Posted by gupts ....the only downside is that you dont have the heart to invert this bottle to splash it...it is just too too precious to run the risk of dropping this extremely precious juice... So let me get this straight...you won't smell Patou PH because you're afraid to invert the bottle, thus increasing the risk of dropping and breaking it? It's a valid concern considering the value of the stuff. But still, I have to ask, why don't you just invert it over a bed?
If you're concerned about wasting juice, just dab a tiny bit on your wrists, rub them together and enjoy! ...over a bed of course.
If I had bottles of this stuff (I've never smelt it) and people were talking it being the nectar of the gods and the best ever created, I wouldn't be able to resist.
I say the risk is worth the reward. You should smell it and report back immediately.
...IMO EVERYBODY!!! IMO!!!

Ha! By the time you're a Grandpa Patou PH is going to be selling for over a $1000 on jetsons-ebay, or whatever they have then. I reckon you've got 5 years to find this stuff at a reasonable price. After that it's Sothebys.

I too fell for the Patou line of Bull "Most Precious liquid known to man"

Answer:
Sending an Patou thread While I'm on holidays....
Anyway, I have been using Patou PH for the last 18 years or so, with small interfalls due to availability after it was discontinued.
It was my daily scent, for years.
Almost everything has been said about this one, and in my opinion it is one of the finest frags ever created, it sits really well on my skin and matches my (real) wardrobe and personality however I am also influenced by sentimental reasons.
I realise it most be frustrating at times for moderate Patou fans to read over and over again that it's the best frag ever made....
I am sure there are some great frags out there that are equally complex, opulent, and of the same quality.
Patou was particulary great when it was still available, and freshly produced.
I think part of the hype for some new users is the fact that it has been discontinued, however it's still relatively easy to buy as long as you are willing to pay for it.
Many times I've had to choose between a new frag or a Patou offer;I tend to go with the Patou....
I now have enough Patou in stock now to last me a while, so I can start purchasing some other gems that are out there, Thank god!

Answer:
If you're going to get your bottles from parfumflacons, be wary. I got 3 x 10ml from there a while back and, well, I was less than impressed by this 'great'.
There was another thread about this with a bit more detail i.e. has their stock aged a little or is it just my preferences? One poster had it right - the topnotes were like a bakery at Christmas time, and then it turns into something vaguely BdPish.
Just thought you should know about the potential Patou source
