Which Should You Buy?
The 1912 multi-floral benchmark, and still one of the most complete florals in production. Green and sharp on top, enormously dense in the heart, mossy and animalic underneath. Grand rather than easy, and worth its reputation.
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
Oakmoss, sandalwood and a civet-style animalic base give it the weight for autumn and winter, while the galbanum and bergamot-led green opening keeps it wearable in spring. Heat pushes the indolic jasmine and tuberose too far.
Occasions
The density of the floral heart and the strength of the drydown make this a formal and evening fragrance. It is too loud and too characterful for a shared office or the gym.
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.
