Which Should You Buy?
A divisive take on a tropical classic. Some find it a bright, sunny delight, a holiday in a bottle. Others sniff a synthetic, short-lived disappointment that misses the mark on authentic frangipani. Sample first to see which camp you're in.
No. 913 reaches for Gucci Bamboo's lily-ylang-ylang-and-sandalwood balance and gets the shape right, but it's a simpler, quieter floral that fades within a few hours where the original holds a soft sandalwood glow for most of the day.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its light, fresh floral and citrus accords make it ideal for casual wear, especially during warmer months. However, the limited projection and longevity mean it's subtle enough for an office setting, though some found it too 'summery'.
Seasons
The bright floral-woody profile suits spring and summer best, feeling underpowered against heavier winter layers.
Occasions
Soft and polished enough for the office, versatile for daytime casual wear, but lacks the presence for a big evening occasion.
