Which Should You Buy?
Vol De Nuit EDT is a divisive, ethereal beauty - some find it a sublime, sophisticated classic; others, a ghostly whisper or an outright vintage misstep. It’s an acquired taste that demands more from the wearer than just a quick sniff.
Grey Flannel is a true legend, still sparking heated debate decades on. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a divisive green-floral powerhouse for those who dare to be different. Not for the faint-hearted, nor for those who prefer their scents sweet.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.
Occasions
Its intimate sillage and soft, elegant profile make it suitable for office and casual wear, though its vintage character might not appeal to everyone for a date. The delicate performance means it sits close to the skin, preventing it from overwhelming formal occasions but making it unsuitable for sport.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its potent projection and distinct, 'old money' floral-green character make it less suitable for casual or office wear, where it might be too strong and attention-grabbing. However, its mature, clean, and unique profile makes it excellent for formal events or a sophisticated date, particularly in cooler weather.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Aromatic, Powdery, Green accords and Iris, Narcissus notes
