Pros & Cons
- I didnt even get a vintage, just a 2022 bottle. This is PAINFULLY beautiful...i cant believe i waited so long to get this one.
- Classy, mature, masculine. A bit spicy, a bit floral.
- A timeless elegance. A rich, warm, perfectly blended leathery chypres by Hermès.
- Exceptional depth and richness in composition
- Outstanding longevity and sillage for prolonged enjoyment
- More refined and luxurious olfactory experience
- Commands attention with sophisticated presence
- Very raw petrol and mechanic shop smell. Not a soft leather or suede.
- Smells like pine-sol in this new formulation.
- This smells like a cough medicine for me, I can't shake it off.
- Higher investment point compared to the EDT
- Potentially perceived as too intense or heavy for warmer climates
- Less versatile for casual daytime wear due to its commanding nature
