Which Should You Buy?
A timeless aromatic fougère with razor-sharp freshness and green, woody backbone. Platinum Égoïste is assertive yet polished, perfect for the man who prizes clarity and confidence.
Old Story is Alexandria UK's take on Chanel Egoiste Platinum, leaning on the same lavender-geranium-oakmoss fougere skeleton. It opens louder and greener than the original's polished blend, with a shorter, simpler dry-down, but the fresh-herbal opening is a recognisable echo of the Chanel classic at a fraction of the cost.
