Which Should You Buy?
A modern homage to classic green aromatics, 1988 is for those who appreciate a refined, slightly retro vibe. It's well-blended and elegant, though its longevity leaves some wanting more for the price.
Gaia is a truly lovely, modern chameleon; it's clean and comforting but with enough of an intriguing edge with the prominent vetiver to keep things interesting. A gentle crowd-pleaser that suits pretty much everyone.

Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and refined profile make it suitable for office and casual wear, projecting an aura of composed freshness. While elegant enough for formal settings, its performance might not last a full evening, and it's too subtle for a boisterous night out.
Seasons
Occasions
Its clean, fresh, and musky character makes it highly versatile across many settings, particularly suited to casual wear or an office environment where it won't overpower. While not overtly romantic or formal, its sophisticated undertones allow it to adapt to more dressed-up occasions without feeling out of place. The light, airy nature also works well for sporty activities.
