Here is a copy / paste of an email I received. We have these sample vials out with other volunteers and are collecting feedback. I thought this evaluation quite thorough:
Ok, here’s my take on the scents.
Upon receiving the two vials (marked “A” and “B”), shaking them well, and removing the cap...I thought “A” was much smoother, sweeter.
The vial marked “B” was sharper. It had more of a natural scent, which I personally liked better.
But we know aftershaves and colognes will be absorbed by the skin, mix with our own individual body smells, and eventually leave a scent unique to every person.
So my next step was to place some of vial “A” on the back of my left hand, and left arm.
Then I placed some of vial “B” on the back of my right hand, and right arm.
I waited a minute or two to let the two fragrances absorb into my skin and dry.
I noticed again that vial “A” was softer. Much smoother and sweeter than the other. It was also a stronger-smelling scent as well. (I could smell it from farther away). Maybe it’s me, but I kept thinking “vanilla”. In my minds-eye I could not picture a natural outdoorsy scent, as much as a soft, sweet, vanilla-ish scent.
Vial “B” on the other hand was a crisper, more natural scent. It smelled more like nature. A fresh, green, fashiony, scent.
Time-wise, vial “A” seemed to last longer. The sweet vanilla scent lingered much longer than vial “B”. After waiting a bit longer, the sweet smell died down a bit, and the natural “green scents“ came out a bit more.
I still prefer vial “B” over the other. I liked the sharper, crisper, more natural “green scent”. It had an aura of artisanal quality.
Wifey agreed. She also mentioned detecting a soft vanilla-like scent in the background of vial “A”.
Both were great scents. And I’m sure it is relative to each individual user. But me and the wifey are both siding with vial “B”.
