Which Should You Buy?
A quietly magnetic resinous-spicy oriental, Legacy of Petra seduces with its smooth liquorice and myrrh, offering Penhaligon's refinement for those who crave intrigue and warmth without bombast.
A truly divisive Al Rehab- bargain basement price, premium performance, but good Lord does it split opinion on masculinity and whether it's actually lovely or just smells like old soap. Try before you buy.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Legacy of Petra's resinous warmth and spicy sweetness excel in cool to cold weather, especially autumn, while its depth and richness can also comfort on winter days. The spice and faint freshness from bergamot and tea allow use in early spring, but the opulence is less suited to hot summer days.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and rich, spicy character work best for sophisticated dates, elegant evenings, or formal events. It can be worn casually by those who love orientals, but is too complex and enveloping for sporty or very informal settings.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh and clean profile makes it suitable for casual and sporty wear, with some finding it versatile enough for dates. However, its significant projection and potential for an 'old-school' vibe might be too much for formal settings or a conservative office environment.
