Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper cult classic, but be warned: the 1991 reformulation is still a green powerhouse, though some purists might sniff at it compared to the original. It's divisive, sharp, and certainly not for everyone, but if you love a truly 'green' scent, you'll be hooked.
Zoologist Panda (2014) is a divisive, art-house scent that demands attention with its bold, hyper-realistic green opening. It's a journey from sharp verdancy to a smoother, woody dry down, but definitely not a safe blind buy.
