Introducing COTY 1997x for men, a fragrance that pays a sophisticated tribute to the iconic Avatar by Coty. This scent is a lovingly crafted olfactory experience that not only captivates the essence of the original 1997 release but also transports you back to the aura of the late '70s—a time of uninhibited expression and soulful living.

The initial spritz envelops you in an invigorating blend of citrusy and sour notes, reminiscent of Avatar's classic bergamot and coriander opening. Our version, however, introduces a hint of musk's capturing the nostalgic freedom of the '70s while rejuvenating the scent for today's discerning man.

As the fragrance lingers, it transitions into a heart that revives Avatar's signature pineapple note. In COTY 1997x, this is harmoniously blended with oakmoss, offering a touch of modernity to the timeless fruity core. It's a scent that feels as if you're rediscovering an old vinyl record—familiar, yet brimming with nuances you hadn't noticed before.

The base notes reveal a rich, woody foundation that serves as a nod to Avatar's own woody undertones. Yet, our rendition further elevates this with the addition of coriander, invoking a sense of nostalgia that is as comforting as it is complex.

Classified as an Aromatic Spicy fragrance, COTY 1997x offers more than just an appealing scent; it's an experience that conjures a sense of inviting, natural allure. Whether you're new to the world of fragrances or a longtime aficionado, COTY 1997x transcends time, evoking feelings of both past and present, as it graces your skin with an elegant, light, and soft perfumed sensation that is nothing short of timeless.

I’m going going,back to back to,the 90s baby

Actually it was the first few years of the 2000s. But is it just me or did anyone else have the amazing experience of finding out that when before high school starts getting picked up early by the one friend with a car then with 6 or sometimes more of your best friends all packed into that ford Taurus or Chrysler lebaron and hit the country roads for a quick hotbox and everyone matching and then as you pull in use visine followed by dousing ourselves with one other than avatar only to have an almost out of body experience like the skies opened and from heaven fell a bit of enlightenment as if God himself said here you go boys and at that very moment an Angel flew down and crop dusted us with a scent that I will never forget it and I also thought it was gone forever leaving a future that is /was almost certainly full of extreme pain and suffering and disappointment anytime you put cologne on. First a singular tear and then quickly followed by intense wailing and basically mourning the loss of our heavenly gift that no other cologne could even a smidge not even .0000000000000000001% of the awesomeness of when avatars sweet scent is complimented by the lovely cloud of our morning ritual with the only woman who never let us down… Mary Jane. I’ve been to the Amazon,crossed a bridge made of bones,scaled the Great Wall of china…….welll actually china buffet in Watertown even crossed the mighty Mississippi River to explore the wonders of what seemed like a kinda weird but absolutely very strange land of 10,000 lakes….aka Minnesota. And in the land of the mighty tribe of people who have been awake for many moons learning the ways of the art of hiding under bushes and crafting things that some might call …ok we’d all call junk somehow attached to more junk must have been glued or possibly tied with a half of a shoelace and before we could even get close enough to really see it it became quite obvious this guy was not wearing a shirt. Just a farmers tan but it was an impressive farmers tan which definitely distracted me from noticing he was wearing only a teal thong and before his contraption could ….honestly I not sure what his end goal was and as he majestically with such god like speed scampered off into the woods behind a Walmart that had armed guards at each door the only thing we could see was that somehow shapeshifted his teal banana hammock to more of a mixture of browns and yellows. And it wasn’t till after we arrived at the holy land of ..The Mall of America. About a hour in we noticed we were being stalked like prey on the Sahara by a man wear a wig with a familiar tan line and in the glory of the fluorescent lights we could see less teal and now more of a solid brown with matching war paint all the way down his legs and into his surprisingly nice and very fancy very oversized dress shoe on one and on the other was either brand new ,like just stolen within the last few minutes or maybe this man was a wizard with some kind of powers that would keep that bright crispy white singular New Balance sneaker in immaculate condition and as he saw us all invading his privacy with our eyes he began to first disappear behind a pole that was not more than a few inches……we could see him but pretty sure he thought the opposite and then he crouched into what seemed like a position a predator would pose before pouncing on his prey. And thankfully I was wrong and it was a pose that definitely made a little girl scream in terror as he was just setting up to scamper away again and as he did a glimmer caught my attention to the sight of a rather large sword or some kind of katana. Which was very clearly being suspended… somehow ….by his now all brown
And now clearly wet under sized piece of fabric and as he scampered away banana swinging in perfect rhythm with his sword and then suddenly a brown mist appeared out of his oversized dress shoe and poof he vanished ever to be seen again leaving a poor old lady with her face speckled heavily with was now clear to me his war paint was not in fact war paint but instead was ….. that’s right ,…. when you’re running down the hall and you think it gonna fall. Diarrhea…..Diarrhea 🤢ok got a little off track but it in conclusion that memory of the wizard doesn’t even come close to comparing to the the symphony when the two scents bond in holy matrimony of the one and only avatar now infused with the power of ganja. I can’t express enough how grateful and thankful I am for I am now less than a week away from my prayers coming into real life and whoever you are that was obviously gifted with a mind that is one in 8 billion. And all of you who buy this and are within range of being privileged enough to be able to journey to this man or women and shake the hand of the brilliant person who chose to share this with us instead of keeping it all to themselves while we battle over tiny $500 artifacts and risk it being a scam this man is my hero. He heard our cries for help and he delivered

Coty 1997x … Well done … Still smiling

Had we not spent years searching for and regretting that we didn’t stock up on the Avatar cologne, prior to Coty’s brutal disconnect, we wouldn’t have lived with the thought that it was gone forever. Gone forever, is a very long time.
We still have a scant amount of the original Avatar, from the late 1990s, trapped in the bottle, wanting to be released but never allowed to escape. Couldn’t bear to be completely without it.
Bottom line … this Coty 1997x is an amazing match to the original Avatar that owns some of the most fondest memories that my husband and I made together in our younger years. Such a unique scent, unmatched by any others and it’s so good to finally have it back.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Alexandria, for a job well done.
Amazing …
