Although I wouldn't use the term "right away," a few that I have personally experienced this with are davidoffs, avo, (nc) bolivars, and some older little known brands I've come across here and there. Keep in mind some of these are with 10+ years on them, but for the most part anything NC that starts out mild will fade away. A few years back I went around buying up old stock to see for myself, and I've had many "hot air" moments. they can be disappointing, especially if you're expecting something that was once really good to be marvelous.

However, when you do come across something that has aged well, the benefit is unparalleled
