What works
- ●90% accuracy to PdM Herod at 1/12th of the price — community consensus
- ●Often reported to have better longevity than the $295 original
- ●Cinnamon-tobacco-vanilla done exactly right for $22
Trade-offs
- ●Osmanthus mid lacks the same refinement as the original
- ●Fall/winter only — there's no point in owning this for summer
