The take

What works

  • ●Benzoin-tonka-vanilla warmth is immediately distinctive — nothing else smells like Pi
  • ●Budget price for a cult-classic with 25 years of proven appeal
  • ●Sweet without being gourmand, warm without being oriental

Trade-offs

  • ●Reads very 1990s — wrong for those wanting contemporary freshness
  • ●Aromatic-herbal top is divisive on first sniff
