| The catch | Named across many videos, but the corpus holds only a handful of distinct owner opinions, and newer 2026 batches draw weaker-performance complaints (some report ~5 hours, or about an hour of strong projection). | Can read too youthful or synthetic/cloying in high heat, and fake bottles are appearing on non-specialist retail sites. Evidence is its own (don't borrow the original Hawas's numbers). |
| Best use case | Date night | Summer heat |
