It's good stuff, isn't it?
Outstanding for sure. I’m on the fence about getting the parfum. Might save my pennies for a bottle of Mancera Cedrat Boise Intense instead, if I’m getting a flanker that is similar to a favorite.
Not everyone does but, to those that do.....
Oh, my scent. Keeping it green.

IMHO, they are so close that it's borderline redundant. Personally I liked the EdP better, but that's totally subjective. I think there's more contrast with the Mancera.

Mancera - Saharian Wind
(from official sample)
Hard one to describe, lavender meets musky leather, and with a underlying touch of vanillic sweetness. These less clean musks are the types I enjoy, and this hits that spot nicely, while feeling more modern than something like Thesus that I wore yesterday. Two sprays last an eternity, so the sample vial is going to last me. The Scent series from Costume National has similarities, I need to really compare them at some point.

Etat Libre d'Orange - Eloge du Traitre
Dear ELdO, why did you discontinue this masterpiece? Another that goes on my top 10 list, maybe even number 1, but that's a volatile slot for me, depending on mood and season.
Thankfully a backup bottle is en route. Couldn't manage without this fresh herbal gem.
