Which Should You Buy?
This one's a smooth, creamy amber-vanilla that gets compared to Layton more often than it gets remembered for its own merits. It's a solid, affordable option, but don't expect beast-mode longevity - it's more about that subtle, elegant skin scent.
This is a seriously impressive 'inspired by' scent, delivering a well-loved fragrance profile at a fraction of the cost. Forget the original, this is often touted as being better - smoother, less cloying, and with a maturity the designer version sometimes lacks. A crowd-pleaser and compliment-getter, especially with the ladies.

Occasions
