Which Should You Buy?
A truly divisive flanker of a classic; some hail it as a cleaner, brighter take on Fahrenheit, others dismiss it as a watered-down disappointment. It's either a revelation or a let-down, depending on what you're hoping for.
This isn't for the faint of heart. Occult Potion is a properly challenging, divisive scent that demands attention. You'll either get it, or you won't - there's no middle ground here.

Reviews indicating it's less intense than the original also suggest it's more versatile for everyday use.

Its bold, woody-amber profile makes it too intense for the office but intriguing for a date or formal event. The complexity and strength mean it's not a casual or sport fragrance.
