No.208 Quercus Parfum

Which Should You Buy?
A sparkling rush of citrus and green, Quercus is the ultimate crisp-shirt cologne: refined, discreet, and effortlessly uplifting. The longevity is modest, but the clarity and British charm are unmatched.
Eden's No.208 is inspired by Penhaligon's Quercus, keeping the citrus-to-oakmoss structure that makes the original such a universally likeable unisex fresh scent, though the drydown reads lighter and less mossy than the niche version.
