The take

What works

  • Pepper-orris-vanilla structure is classically masculine without being dated
  • Black vanilla base is rich and genuinely distinctive
  • Strong fall and winter performance at a reasonable designer price point

Trade-offs

  • Iris-dominant heart reads powdery — not for everyone
  • The EDT and Boisée versions can overshadow this one in the lineup
