Which Should You Buy?
Prepare for a wild ride because Erawan is seriously divisive. It's a green, hay-filled enigma that some adore as a comforting aromatherapy, while others find it utterly unwearable, smelling of stale cigarettes or even moldy leaves. Definitely one to sample first.
A divisive but undeniably classic green fougere that screams '70s swagger. For the price, it's a steal if you appreciate its soapy, aromatic charm, but don't expect modern appeal or beast-mode performance from current formulations.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and gentle sillage make it acceptable for casual wear and intimate dates, as it's not overpowering. It's less suited for formal events or the office due to its distinctive, sometimes polarising green and hay character, and not fit for sport.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its clean, soapy nature makes it versatile for casual wear and suitable for a relaxed office. However, its vintage barbershop scent might be too 'old-school' for formal events or modern date nights, and it's not well-suited for sport due to its profile and moderate performance.
