Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Stetson
Stetson is an absolute icon, and one that divides opinion squarely down the middle. Some call it an outdated 'old man' scent, while others say it's a timeless, cosy classic. If you're after a budget-friendly, sweet-powdery aromatic, this is your huckleberry. Just prepare for the 'old man' comments - or embrace them.
Statement
Our Verdict - Alia Edition 2018
Alia Edition 2018 is a divisive little number. Some reckon it's a unique, sweet-green dream; others find it a bit of a musky mess. You'll either love its candy-floss woods or give it a wide berth.

Season and Occasion Fit

Stetson

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its moderate sillage and comforting, sweet-powdery profile make it suitable for casual wear and some dates, especially in cooler weather, as many reviewers highlight its soothing qualities. However, its 'old-school' association and sweet warmth might be a bit much for formal events or offices, and it's definitely not one for the gym.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its prominent sweet and musky accords make it a bit much for a formal setting or the office, but it's great for casual wear. The playful sweetness and musky warmth also lend themselves well to a relaxed date night.
