This much-hyped Guerlain masterpiece, now infamously discontinued and reformulated, evokes extreme devotion and frustration in equal measure. A rich, sweet tonka-almond dream to some; an overpriced, underperforming disappointment to others.

A boozy, almond-and-tonka aftershave built to echo Guerlain's L'Homme Ideal line - the syrupy cherry-cola opening and toasted-almond drydown are both present, though the original's inconsistent longevity means this dupe isn't giving up much on staying power.
