    What do reviewers say about Tricorn and Old Spice Original?

    The tension here is real: woody enough for the man who knows what he wants, powdery enough that someone notices. The cocoa-sandalwood pairing either clicks or it doesn't, but when it does.Tricorn
    A fragrance that smells like Sunday morning, a fresh razor, and a drawer of white undershirts. It's been doing this since 1938. The warm spice heart rewards the patient.Old Spice Original
