Which Should You Buy?
Kilian's Old Fashioned is a divisonal boozy gourmand that delivers on its name, but isn't for everyone. Some find the realistic whiskey note captivating; others recoil from smelling like a "wealthy alcoholic old lady" or a night out. Not a safe blind-buy for the faint of liver.
A truly divisive scent: some find it a sublime, comforting 'group hug' of a fragrance, while others say it's a harsh, chaotic mess with disappointing performance. A must-sample, it's very much a 'your mileage may vary' situation.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
With its photorealistic boozy opening and strong amber character, this is best reserved for evening events or intimate dates, rather than the office. The scent profile is too direct and heavy for casual or sporty wear, but works well for formal occasions in cool weather when you want to make a statement.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent. The boozy cognac-honey opening and the deep amber-myrrh-incense drydown read thick and comforting on cool skin, which is why wearers reach for it across autumn and winter and rarely in heat.
Occasions
Its warm, boozy, resinous character makes it a natural fit for dates and cosy casual evenings in cooler weather, with many describing it as a comforting 'group hug' and others as sexy. The density and incense edge keep it off the office and out of sport, though it can dress up for a relaxed formal occasion.
