Which Should You Buy?
This one is a real head-scratcher and polarising, Andromeda conjures up visions of either luxurious alien fruit or a cheap air freshener. It delivers beast longevity, but whether that's a good thing depends entirely on your nose - sample before you commit, obviously.
A legendary, much-missed masterpiece, Alchimie is either an intoxicating, complex floriental dream or a muddled, cucumber-pickled nightmare depending on your skin chemistry. The passion for its return is palpable, a true testament to its unique, divisive charm.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and remarkable longevity, Andromeda is best for casual wear and dates where you want to make an impression. It might be a bit too much for a professional office setting, and its fruity-sweet nature doesn't quite fit formal events or active sports.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its rich, enveloping nature and reported strong projection make it less suitable for office wear, but perfect for date nights or formal events where its depth can truly shine. While some find it too much for casual daytime, many still cherish it for cozy, relaxed moments, especially in cooler weather.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share White Floral, Green, Amber accords and Amber, Tonka Bean notes
