Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L' Mixte
A divisive scent for some, but for most, L'Eau Mixte is a beautiful, classic-style citrus chypre, perfect for warm weather. Expect a natural, uplifting experience, even if the price tag for an 'eau' strength raises a few eyebrows.

Our Verdict - John Varvatos XX Indigo
This one's a divisive blue, but a solid budget alternative for Versace Dylan Blue fans. Don't expect groundbreaking originality or stellar performance, but it's a pleasant, fresh twist on a familiar profile for warm weather wear.

Season and Occasion Fit

L' Mixte

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, green, and citrus heavy profile makes it ideal for casual wear and sport, and its moderate sillage keeps it office-safe. While some find it too light for formal occasions, its sophisticated blending elevates it beyond a mere 'cologne' for some dates.

John Varvatos XX Indigo

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office Date

Its fresh, clean, and moderate performance makes it suitable for casual wear, the office, or even the gym without being overpowering. The overall blue fragrance profile skews it away from formal events, and the limited projection makes it less ideal for date nights where you want more presence.
