Which Should You Buy?
Aldebaran is Quentin Bisch at his most polarising: a love-it-or-hate-it tuberose that redefines the genre. It's weird, challenging, and frankly unforgettable, a beast with serious projection that will turn heads - for better or worse.
A budget take on Marc-Antoine Barrois Aldebaran. Stellar Bloom captures the creamy tuberose-and-tonka spine, but the dupe smooths it into a more conventional white floral - the cool, metallic, rubbery abstraction that made Aldebaran so polarising and avant-garde reads softer and tamer here, with shorter staying power.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its beastly sillage and unique, often challenging, profile make Aldebaran wholly unsuitable for office or sport. It's better reserved for more relaxed casual settings or bold date nights where its distinctive character can shine without overwhelming.
Seasons
The creamy tuberose blooms across spring and summer, with enough warmth from tonka to carry into autumn.
Occasions
A bold, statement-making floral suited to evenings, dates and dressed-up occasions; a touch loud for the office.
Similarity Breakdown
