Hi all, a couple quick questions regarding reformulations. Are bottles of Le Male with “T” in the batch code from before or after the reformulation that supposedly hurt the performance of the fragrance? I believe “T” corresponds to 2011, but considering how close that is to the reformulation I believe happened in/around 2011/2012, I wasn’t sure if it was from before or after it.

I was also wondering if anybody could comment on the difference between the version of Chergui with the white label and “SL” (not the Palais logo) and the newer version with the black label and “Serge Lutens” written out in big white letters. I’ve heard of numerous reformulations over the years but was interested to know how the latest one stacked up to the previous one with the white label and “SL” in terms of scent, longevity and projection.

Thanks!
