Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cactus Garden EDC
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Discontinued and now commanding silly money, Cactus Garden has a cult following who absolutely adore its unique green freshness, but many others find it generic or, worse, like bug spray. Approach with caution, and don't believe the hype-inflated price tag.
Favourite
Our Verdict - LV132 Cactus Garden EDP
LV132 catches the bright bergamot-and-tea freshness of Cactus Garden's citrus aromatic opening well, but loses the original's distinctive dry, mineral cactus facet in a more conventional green-musk finish.

Its fresh, clean, and moderate sillage make it suitable for casual wear and even the office, though it's not a powerhouse. The invigorating citrus and green accords are perfect for sport or high heat, but its lack of overt sophistication makes it less ideal for formal settings.
