Which Should You Buy?
This one's a mixed bag, to put it mildly. Some reckon it's a beast mode Aventus dupe with an earthy twist, blowing the original out of the water. Others? They smell pure dirt, grass, or even 'peppery barf'. Definitely not a blind buy unless you're into an intensely mossy, green vibe.
This earthy, mossy chypre is a sophisticated offering from Sisley, a modern twist on a classic. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent; some find it intriguing and fresh, while others are put off by its dry, almost dated earthiness.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its long lasting, moderate sillage and earthy, sophisticated character makes it well-suited for formal daytime events or even a refined casual wear. While it has some fresh elements, its depth and intensity make it less ideal for sports.
