Which Should You Buy?
Cypress & Grapevine is a masterclass in refined greenery, fusing crisp cypress, dry woods, and a wisp of grape for a sophisticated yet restrained signature. Effortlessly unisex and urban-chic, it stands apart from the typical citrus-woody genre.
This one's a bit of a heartbreaker for the old guard. While some rave about its fruity chypre charm and Baccarat-esque drydown, many previous fans say it's a weak, overpriced shadow of its former self. A polarising re-release that needs a try if you're into fruit, patchouli, and oud.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The combination of cypress, green notes, and dry woods makes this especially suited to spring and autumn when fresh, crisp, and leafy accords shine. Summer works in cooler climates, but the aromatic-woody focus may feel dry in winter.
Occasions
Its subtle projection, dryness, and clean woody-green character make it highly versatile for daily wear and office settings. Less suited for formal or sporty occasions due to its understated, contemplative nature.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its sophisticated woody and earthy accords, tempered by fruit, make it suitable for evenings out and more refined casual settings. However, numerous reports of weaker sillage and longevity mean it won't overwhelm an office, yet might be too subtle for a grand formal event.
