How they differ
- Notes: Hacivat lists pineapple, grapefruit and bergamot, then cedar, patchouli and jasmine, on oakmoss and woods. That oakmoss is why wearers call it greener and sharper than Aventus.
Try both first
A 1 ml of each costs $14.98 together. Wear one on each wrist and check at 10 minutes, 2 hours and 6 hours (how to test properly).
Verdict: if you love pineapple-and-woods but want to smell less like every finance bro at the Soho House bar, sample Hacivat first.
