Which Should You Buy?
This Serge Lutens creation is a divisive one. You'll either find it a seductive, dark, and elegant lavender masterpiece or a surprisingly unoriginal 'dad's aftershave' that's overtly masculine. It's certainly a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with little middle ground.
This one's a divisive secret love. While some find it too sweet or even nauseating, countless others swear by its unique, comforting charm, often hoarding bottles after its discontinuation. It's a crowd-pleaser for those it suits, sparking compliments and loyalty.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its moderate to strong projection and dark, sensual accords make it less suitable for office wear. However, its sophisticated and seductive nature, often described as 'dark and sexy,' clearly lends itself to romantic dates and formal evening events. For casual wear, it depends on whether you prefer to make a statement.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its soft, clean, and often 'inoffensive' nature makes it a great office choice, provided it's applied lightly due to reports of strong sillage. It's perfectly suited for casual wear and can be a comforting date night scent, but its playful sweetness might be too much for formal events or sports.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Sweet, Aromatic, Vanilla accords and Musk, Tonka Bean notes
