Which Should You Buy?
This legendary fougere has become a mythical beast due to its discontinuation, with prices bordering on the absurd. Is it worth tracking down? It's a classic for a reason: bold, fresh, and unapologetically masculine, a benchmark for the genre that still holds up. Don't fall for the hype prices, though.
This one is a solid, no-nonsense aromatic fougère. It's not a showstopper and won't reinvent the wheel, but for the price, it’s a dependable, grown-up scent. Think 'reliable daily driver' rather than 'prestige sports car'.
