Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 1988 EDP
A modern homage to classic green aromatics, 1988 is for those who appreciate a refined, slightly retro vibe. It's well-blended and elegant, though its longevity leaves some wanting more for the price.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Eternity Aqua for Men EDT
This one's a proper crowd-pleaser for the warmer months. Easy on the wallet and even easier to wear, it’s a reliable pick for smelling clean and fresh, though perhaps not one to turn heads.

Season and Occasion Fit

1988

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its moderate sillage and refined profile make it suitable for office and casual wear, projecting an aura of composed freshness. While elegant enough for formal settings, its performance might not last a full evening, and it's too subtle for a boisterous night out.

Eternity Aqua for Men

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh and aquatic accords make it ideal for casual wear, the office, or the gym, as many reviews suggest. While it's generally inoffensive, strong projection (for some batches) makes it less suitable for formal events or intimate dates.
