Which Should You Buy?
A truly gorgeous, sophisticated gourmand that's an undeniable crowd-pleaser and signature scent for many. The only catch? Finding an original pre-reformulation bottle is the real challenge, as the current versions don't quite hit the same delicious hazelnut and coffee notes.
Three materials, deliberately: Calabrian bergamot, a coffee heart and Haitian vetiver. An ambery fougère that leans on the coffee for character and on ambroxan for the drydown.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and sophisticated gourmand profile make it suitable for office wear, provided it's applied subtly. It truly shines on dates and formal occasions where its warm, inviting nature can be appreciated up close, yet it's versatile enough for a classy casual outing.
Seasons
The bergamot-and-coffee opening keeps it wearable in mild weather while the ambery vetiver drydown gives it enough warmth for autumn; full summer heat pushes the amber forward too hard.
Occasions
Moderate projection after the opening makes it acceptable in shared spaces, and the coffee note gives it enough interest to carry an evening.
