Catalyst by Halston for Men, Eau De Toilette Spray, 3.4-Ounce

I bought this for $30 on Amazon a few years back, along with several other Halston scents, all made by EA fragrances. Now it’s $300, so I left the “value” part of this review blank for obvious reasons-it’s basically priceless, and the value is determined by the consumer...in any case the bright orange liquid is EXTREMELY potent. I got 10+ hours on my skin, and it evolved nicely. When I first bought it I thought to myself “damn this is strong” but every time I put it on I am reminded what cologne is supposed to be. It indeed has the Halston vibe, where one senses that it could nicely cover up the stink of a weekend long bender, cigarettes, sex and sleeping in your clothes. If I woke up in a gutter, this is what I would use to “do the job.” Perhaps this is my only uncorrupted Harry Fremont scent...this is KFC the way the Colonel originally intended. The only scent that comes close to this in my collection is Xeryus LPM by Givenchy, yet this doesn’t nauseate when sprayed at the same power levels. I pity the fool what didn’t buy a bottle of this when it was in reach. If you should run across this in someone’s timeshare medicine cabinet, do not hesitate to try it out.

Best cologne ever. Was so afraid this was going to be permanently discontinued. Great price, too! At one time this cologne was at least three times the cost and I couldn't tell you why it was so expensive. I've been wearing this cologne for a little over 10 years now and the smell is always exactly the same - truly high quality. One spray lasts all day on me, and it is pretty stout so one spray is all you really need which makes the bottle last forever. It's perfect.

I used to buy this all the time but with the middle and high designer stores closing i haven't found it around here. I loved the set they used to make with the test tubes etc. Included. Very good product and price for the larger size flask. Smells great I'm ordering myself one also. This one is for my twin boys birthday

Excelente perfume ,lo he usado muchas veces, la última vez lo.compre por 14 dólares aquí en Amazon y lo regale a mi hermano pensando en comprar dos , y encuentro que ahora cuesta 400 dólares, no se que paso ahí, no he podido volver a comprarlo

Delicioso perfumen, todavía tengo casi la mitad del frasco, lo cuido mucho

I've been using various different colognes for a while now, having a difficult time finding one that I was happy with, that I could find regularly, and that fit within my budget. Catalyst by Halston for Men seems to be the end product that I was looking for; at least for the spring and summer times.The scent its self is very light; as in that it isn't overpowering or heavy like a winter cologne would be. Its crisp, and enters the nostrils easily leaving a pleasant feeling. From what I can tell it has accents of citrus to it, and really creates an invitation to get closer. It sticks with you, but not in a bad way, and accents with an already clean feeling. It seems to last for a long while too, having had worn it most of the day I could still catch drifts of the scent every once in a while. The cologne its self can either stand alone by its self, or help to promote other scents you are wearing. I'd recommend to couple it with something that has either cedar or sandalwood to it.The only fault I can see with it is the bottle design its self. It's oddly shaped, and can be hard to hold in your hand while applying; especially if you keep it in your bathroom and it gets covered in steam after taking a shower.Other than that, the product is extremely nice and within a great price range to make it an every day cologne with out breaking the bank.

Been wearing this stuff since the 80s. Mixes great with my natural body chemistry. Women love the way I smell.

Love the scent, but I think the .4 of 3.4 fl Oz where missing. It would appear my bottle was used. Thanks Amazon.
