Which Should You Buy?
A divisive, take-no-prisoners patchouli bomb that some absolutely adore for its earthy, green intensity, while others find it overwhelmingly harsh. If you don't love patchouli, you'll hate this. If you do, prepare for a masterpiece.
A budget take on Sospiro's Laylati, the night-time 'Black Afgano lite'. This dupe captures the smoky cedar-patchouli-tobacco mood that defines the original, but plays it lighter and smoother, sacrificing some of Laylati's resinous density and marathon longevity for an easier everyday wear.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.
Occasions
Given its nuclear strength and potent patchouli-forward profile, Hindu Grass isn't ideal for office wear, where discretion is key. It suits casual outings and dates, particularly in cooler weather, where its earthy character can shine without overwhelming those around you. It's too assertive for formal occasions or sports.
Seasons
The dark, smoky, resinous woody character belongs to cold autumn and winter nights and feels overpowering in summer.
Occasions
Its intense, brooding woodiness suits evenings and formal nights rather than daytime sport or a conservative office.
