Which Should You Buy?
This Roudnitska classic is divisive, with true vintage formulations hitting entirely different than modern ones. Expect a rollercoaster of fresh citrus and green notes, underpinned by surprisingly animalic musk and oakmoss - a true love-it-or-hate-it gem.
This one's a proper cult classic, but be warned: the 1991 reformulation is still a green powerhouse, though some purists might sniff at it compared to the original. It's divisive, sharp, and certainly not for everyone, but if you love a truly 'green' scent, you'll be hooked.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its potent 'old-school' character and strong sillage in its vintage forms mean it's perhaps too commanding for a modern office, better suited for casual wear or as a statement piece in a formal setting. While some find it refreshing, others perceive a 'dirty' note that might not suit all date situations. The fresh, green, and citrus elements make it a good call for warmer, casual days.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its intensely green and fresh nature makes it ideal for casual wear and invigorating for sport, especially in warmer weather. While it has a classic elegance that could work for some office settings, its initial sharpness and polarizing character might be too much for formal events or intimate dates.
