1920 The Origin by Tous

Thanks for the reviews; I read them before buying and they were spot on. I’ve always liked Cartier Declaration and found a ‘literal’ replica here that’s way more accessible. Obviously, its longevity and sillage are softer than the original, but I’m absolutely satisfied. It’s a fragrance for adults that inspires confidence, elegance, and a bit of challenge; it’s not one of those overly fresh ‘very aqua’ scents out there. It has a very subtle, refined hint of sweat. Absolutely recommended for anyone who likes Cartier Declaration.

I hate my limitation with Iso E Super. I feel like I like it, but it fails on longevity and projection due to my genetics—I don’t perceive that note well, which leads into the cedar. It conditions me to enjoy it in bursts of variable intensity. I find it very similar to Cartier Declaration but with less intensity across all components. I love the spiced citrus opening with pepper, the carnal development of cumin with florals, and the woody base. I don’t perceive patchouli or ambergris, maybe because the Iso E Super in the cedar base mutes those nuances. It’s a can, it’s annoying, but no one’s fault. Overall, it’s masculine, sexy, and very pleasant. Not quite as much as Cartier, but it’s a great alternative for the scent and price. I’m going to buy it and use it gladly. Definitely recommend trying it first.

It smells enormously like Cartier Declaration, with less power and slightly toned down, but much more affordable. It might have a similar vibe to Terre d’Hermès at first. It fits that category of elegant fragrances for meetings or special outings. Good presentation by Tous, little known among the general public.

It’s a photocopy of Cartier Declaration at a more accessible price without sacrificing much quality. If the cumin scent bothers you, try Narciso Rodriguez for Him Bleu Noir EDT.

I was looking for a daily perfume for the office; I own a TOUS and use men’s fragrances, so it was the first thing I saw in the store at 50% off. I smelled it and loved it. It reminded me a lot of Narciso Rodriguez Bleu Noir. It leaves a moderate trail and is very rich, so if you like Bleu Noir, I recommend it because it’s VERY similar and costs less.

I tried it a few days ago and it immediately reminded me of Cartier Declaration. I didn’t ask about the price because I lost interest since I already have the classic Declaration plus about six of its flankers. If you like it and it costs approximately the same, just buy the classic Declaration. At least on eBay, the prices are quite similar.

For the good Luis García: an elegant, masculine scent with a sophisticated patchouli, perfect for mature, formal men. It’s powerful and striking, projecting two meters for the first two hours before settling into an intimate one-meter bubble that, in enclosed spaces, invades the room. I recommend spraying it on the neck for a refined touch; it lasts over eight hours. It’s not youthful or easy to wear: it demands a formal look and at least thirty years of age. If it’s for a young man, use it only for night occasions; for someone mature, it’s an excellent signature. It’s very clean, but the patchouli leaves a sweaty nuance, so use it sparingly.

There’s a saying that goes ‘it doesn’t matter to me,’ so you can see how little value is placed on it. It doesn’t smell like sweat to me; it’s more of a herbal, spicy, bitter scent that lingers from start to finish. Cumin dominates everything here. I didn’t like it at all. It’s not an expensive fragrance, but it’s not cheap either. So, my advice is to try it before buying. It’s not very versatile and more of a personal treat; I don’t think you’ll get many compliments. Another downside: it reminds me of Cartier Declaration but costs almost the same. If you like Declaration and can find it for around 20 euros, it might be a reasonable purchase, but otherwise, au revoir.

They say I ‘don’t care a fig,’ and there’s the key to its value (or lack thereof). To me, it doesn’t smell like sweat, but rather something herbal, spiced, and bitter that lasts from start to finish. Cumin dominates everything. I haven’t liked it at all; it’s neither expensive nor cheap. Test it before buying blind. It’s not very versatile and meant for personal enjoyment; I don’t think you’ll get many compliments. Another downside: it reminds me of Cartier Declaration but costs almost the same. If you like Declaration and find it for around 20 euros, it might be a reasonable purchase; for more, no. Au revoir.

To me, this is the most disgusting thing I’ve smelled lately. I hate cumin as both a scent and a flavor, so it’s obvious. It has a very sharp cumin note. In my country, cumin is a seasoning added in excessive amounts to food, so I immediately associate it with empanadas and cebollado. It’s fine that perfumes add gourmand notes, but at least balance them out. Scent: 2/10.

It doesn’t last long for me, a maximum of 3 or 4 hours; it must be my pH.

A linear fragrance from start to finish. The combination of notes gives a citrus scent mixed with an overly wild grassy smell and a strong body sweat sensation. On me, it had a medium trail for a couple of hours, then dropped to low for another two, and finally disappeared. Suitable for intermediate seasons and casual settings, but personally, I didn’t like it, so I recommend testing it before buying.

Tous 1920 is a fresh, spiced, woody, and floral fragrance. It begins with the citrus freshness of bergamot, followed by really pleasant floral and spicy accords. For me, it’s a subtle seduction; the cedar woods give it an intense touch with marked personality. Trail and longevity are average on my skin. At some point, it might remind you a bit of Cartier Declaration. A good buy.
