Which Should You Buy?
This 90s classic is a frustrating tale of two perfumes. The vintage Minotaure is a complex, seductive masterpiece, while current versions are a watered-down shadow of their former self. Seek out the original, if you can, to experience its true charm.
Katy Perry's Indi is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a surprisingly nuanced celebrity scent that punches above its weight. Some rave about its cozy, musky warmth, others are left questioning if they actually hate musk after all. Definitely not for everyone, but a hidden gem for those it suits.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
The vintage formulation's strong projection and longevity make it less suitable for office wear, but perfect for dates and evening events. Modern formulations, with their weaker performance, could be worn more casually, though its rich character still leans away from daytime or sport.
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.
Occasions
Its intimate sillage and soft, comforting profile make it ideal for casual wear, bedtime, or the office where an inoffensive scent is preferred. The limited projection means it won't overpower, though some find it too faint to make an impact on a date or formal event.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Powdery, Amber, Woody accords and Lily Of The Valley, Musk notes
