The take

What works

  • Apple-sage-amberwood combination is clean, modern, and versatile
  • Accessible entry into the Y family before committing to EDP/Intense
  • Hot-weather daytime go-to

Trade-offs

  • Longevity is the weak point — gone by lunchtime in hot weather
  • The EDP Intense outperforms it at nearly every level
