Which Should You Buy?
This discontinued Lancôme beauty is a controversial one. Some find it a timeless, sophisticated masterpiece - a true "real woman" scent. Others are repulsed by what they describe as a sharp, cleaning-fluid-like nastiness. Love it or hate it, it aims for classic femininity.
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Some reckon it's a sublime post-rain garden, others are getting musty old florals or even 'stale urinoir'. It's definitely not for everyone, but if you love creamy, waxy ylang-ylang and musk, you might just fall hard for its unique artistry.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
While some find it office-appropriate due to its elegance, its potential for strong projection and intimate warmth make it better suited for dates or formal events. The floral and woody accords lend themselves to versatility, but definitely less for casual wear or sport.
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.
Occasions
Its soft sillage and moderate longevity make it suitable for close-quarters like a date or casual wear without being overwhelming. It's too quiet for formal events and totally unsuitable for sport, but could work in a relaxed office environment if applied lightly.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Musky, Powdery, White Floral accords and Orange Blossom, Ylang-Ylang notes
