Aquione vs Saint Julep

Saint Julep has an appealing concept and creative opening with minty-sugary notes, but the r/fragrance community consensus is that poor longevity and a disappointing drydown make it difficult to recommend as a full bottle purchase. While some appreciate its uniqueness and a few report better performance, the general view is that Imaginary Authors' marketing and presentation exceed the actual fragrance quality, especially given niche pricing.
