Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Blue Cypress EDP
This one's a divisive aquatic-woody scent. Some find it a refreshing, clean take on Australian cypress, while others dismiss it as a synthetic, overpriced 'ADG type' fragrance with poor performance. Definitely sample first.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Legacy EDP
A divisive sweet fougere - some find it a pleasant, masculine scent, others can't stand the sugary sweetness. You'll either love Ronaldo's "Legacy" or reach for a different scent entirely.

Season and Occasion Fit

Blue Cypress

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Its fresh, clean profile makes it suitable for office wear, though its weak performance means it won't be intrusive. The aquatic and woody accords lean well into casual and sport settings, but its common comparisons to generic men's freshies reduce its date and formal appeal.

Legacy

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn

A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

The strong, sweet, and masculine character leans more towards evening and social events than a quiet office. Its bold nature makes it suitable for special occasions, while the sweetness could be overpowering for casual daily wear or sport.
