The original 1975 Halston is a chypre-floral built by Bernard Chant, opening on green, fruity top notes over a dense floral heart and a mossy, ambery chypre base. It debuted alongside Roy Halston Frowick's rise as the era-defining American designer of Studio 54-era New York and remains the foundational scent of the house.
