These two smell completely different but I thoroughly enjoy them both
Fully understand why folks feel so strongly about the reformulation, the OG is an undeniable masterpiece, arguably the best thing I have ever smelled, there is nothing i dislike about it.It actually pisses me off that i cant find something about it that makes me ok with not having it in my collection lol.
If I got rid of everything except for 3 the OG would be one of them. Buttttttt, since I don't have only three, definitely was able to make room for the 2025 version, while nothing like the previous, it is still an incredible fragrance from one of my favorite houses that I can see myself wearing far more often than the OG.
It has been overstated but it should have been named differently, maybe intense elixer as it is far more reminiscent of the intense rather than the OG , but i digress. Still making my way through 30ml worth of decants of the OG so the one I just picked up will last for a good length of time. Got this 75 ml from macys for 130 , otherwise I would never pay full retail for it at the cost per ml.
TLDR: 2025 DHP smells great , no it's nothing like the OG ,yes it is more wearable, no i would not pay full retail, yes i wish I had tons a cash for multiple bottles of the OG.
