I have been using Wind Song cologne since I was 18 years old - I will be 75 years old next month. The last three times that I bought Wind Song it didn't smell the same. Have you change the ingredients? I received compliments everywhere I went telling me I smelled so good -they would say you smell clean and fresh - and ask what I had on that smelled so good and I would say Wing Song. It doesn't have that nice smell anymore and I am so disappointed because it is the only cologne I can wear. Thanks - and if you did change it please change it back.

Hi - Amazon asked me to respond because I had a similar complaint about the Wind Song Dusting Powder. When I first opened a new one I ordered it seemed to have little fragrance compared to before. Then I wrote the review. But I did find later after the powder had been loosened up more, that it is much better. Yours is the cologne. I am 87 and live in a retirement community, and it did make me think of something. Quite a number have mentioned that their taste buds and ability to smell don't work as well as before. It could just be that, and you could perhaps find out from some friends if they can smell the fragrance. Hope you can at least know that others enjoy it.

Try Nina Ricci's L'Aire du Temps. I've worn it since I was 16 (I'm 75) & I think Wind Song was patterned after it. They both have that fresh, clean scent.

I bought Wind Song dusting powder (4 of them) for Christmas gifts and never have used it myself. I thought it smelled good, but can't answer a question if it is different. I would think you could search the company that apparently still makes Wind Song products and ask them the question.

I wondered the same thing when it arrived, because it "seemed" different. So I did some online research and it appears to have been reformulated a long time ago. Good news is that it still smells great, and I'm still receiving compliments on it.

Hi Jo,I don't know because out unit does't have those smell.Is it brand new? Maybe that's one of the reasons. Let it work for a while and see how it's gonna happen. If it doesn't change at all, you should send it back soon! Hope this help!

Mine did not smell the same. Be careful, maybe something is wrong. If I were you I return it and replace it with another one.

I too find it to work different in my hair. I noticed the first few ingredients have changed the order they appear on the new label. I think that has something to do with it. I have always loved the smell until now with the new black and lime label. I now smell like a man with this product. Its smell is very strong and doesn't smell fruity or light like it used to. If I wanted to smell like a man I would use American Crews brown label product for men and smells like it is for men

I'm not quite sure what you really mean, but I'll still attempt to answer. The one I ordered was fine, it didn't smell rancid. This Cologne has been around for a while and has the scent of regal maturity, so I wouldn't recommend it for someone in their teens to mid 30's

I first tried this a year and half ago and it was amazing. I ordered some more of this after trying to use a cheaper one, and FAIL. The name and branding of it changed it's not the same bottle that I had before. I do believe it is the same formula because it does soften and tame the frizz and it has that smell I remember, it's very distinctive - chocolately. It doesn't last as long for me anymore, because I have been training for fitness comps some I sweating my hair out twice a day, and of course the salt just strips the keratin right out. But, with that being said I think it's the real deal. Hope that helps. I first tried this a year and half ago and it was amazing.

I'm not sure. I'm in my early 50s. I like the texture, feel, and fragrance. I'm not sure if it's been as miraculous as some think. Sorry not to be of more help.

Zane, I'm sorry to say...but, unless this is old perfume (like over a year old), it is not the old version. Being an Opium junkie for almost 30 years now, I can honestly tell you that I am heartbroken over the "new recipe". I'm not sure, but the so called new formula for this scent was in direct response to import laws imposed by the Uncle Sam a couple of years ago...so there might be a chance of getting the old formula from the Paris site...but I'm not sure they will ship it here, to the U.S. Hope this helps! And, if you find a way to get the original scent, PLEASE let me know so I can get a bottle. Zane, I'm sorry to say...but, unless this is old perfume (like over a year old), it is not the old version.

I'm told they changed the formula several years ago, and this is the 'new' fragrance. In my mind, not the fragrance I loved for 20 years. Not sure I'll buy again.

Hi, Susan. Yes to your question! I have 3 nephews ( in their 30's) living in my late sister's house who love this fragrance! I order it for me and end up giving it to them! So please have your brother experience it!

Not sure why Yardley quit making the original, but it may have been that violet just went out of fashion and younger buyers considered it a scent that only old ladies would wear. However, there have always be perfume fans who love violet (I'm one of them) and will try anything with that scent. I don't think I ever wore the original, but I like the current version. On my skin, it's a sweet, cool, green-smelling violet. It does have a somewhat nostalgic, melancholy "feel" to it. I have sampled far more expensive violet perfumes that didn't smell nearly as good. Personally, I wouldn't want it any stronger, but everyone's skin is a little different.

I bought this last year and I am extremely happy with it . It is %100 original and the aroma stays for a long time. I always get a compliment when I wear it. I recommend this perfume %100. Good luck

At first it has this powdery light floral scent when you first spray it. But goes away in the first hour of wearing it. there is other "scents" like the blue/green bottle its the original, it doesn't smell like really anything. I know both guys and gals who wear the original one. I'd suggest getting a small can to see if you like it before investing in a bigger one. =) Hope this helps!

does this smell like their other 10 products? I thought the product was great, but they smelled like 1970s cheap cologne, overpowering bad. I stopped buying the 10 products because of the unpleasant odor, does this have a smell?

I don't know. What I can tell you is that I wore this fragrance from 1982to 1992 or so and this seems to be a less rounded aroma. Seemingly different in the formulation.
