1-12

Halston 1-12 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1976. The fragrance opens with Basil, Green, Galbanum, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Lavender, Jasmine, Juniper, and Pine, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Oakmoss, Musk, and Cedar.

Our verdict on 1-12: Statement

A divisive but undeniably classic green fougere that screams '70s swagger. For the price, it's a steal if you appreciate its soapy, aromatic charm, but don't expect modern appeal or beast-mode performance from current formulations.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date

Its clean, soapy nature makes it versatile for casual wear and suitable for a relaxed office. However, its vintage barbershop scent might be too 'old-school' for formal events or modern date nights, and it's not well-suited for sport due to its profile and moderate performance.

About

Halston 1-12 opens with a rush of sharp green notes, bright citrus, and aromatic basil, immediately evoking a fresh, clean barbershop vibe. The heart introduces a classic fougere blend of lavender and pine, underpinned by juniper and a hint of spicy carnation. It eventually settles into a rich, mossy base of oakmoss and cedar, softened by amber and a touch of vanilla, maintaining a distinctly clean, soapy character throughout.
