This is Him Eau de Toilette vs Agar Gold Stronger Version Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This Is Him is a genuinely divisive scent, sparking strong opinions with its bold take on incense and vanilla. It's either a masterful blend of edgy sophistication or a cloying, unwearable mess. Love it or hate it, you definitely won't be bored.
Agar Gold Stronger Version targets Tom Ford Oud Wood, and this boosted release is one of Perfume Parlour's closer woody matches - smooth oud, cardamom and creamy sandalwood. It reads slightly flatter and sweeter than the polished original, but the 'Stronger' tuning lifts its projection and longevity above the house norm.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its bold and projecting nature, combined with smoky and vanilla accords, makes it less suited for a conservative office environment. However, many reviews highlight its 'sexy' and 'mysterious' qualities for dates, and its versatile cool-weather appeal for casual or even semi-formal nights out, despite some performance complaints.
Seasons
The smooth, dry oud-and-sandalwood profile is versatile but leans cooler-weather, easing off only slightly in summer.
Occasions
An elegant, refined woody-oud that suits formal and office settings as readily as evenings.
