Is Etienne Aigner Nº2 still in production?+−
No, this fragrance has been discontinued. While it can still be found through discounters and secondary markets, it is no longer part of the current Aigner catalog.
How does the performance compare to modern fresh scents?+−
It is notably more potent than many modern "freshies." Because it relies on a heavy base of moss, musk, and labdanum, it tends to stay on the skin for 7 to 9 hours, which is superior to many current citrus-based Eau de Toilettes.
Is this a good choice for a professional environment?+−
Yes, the community often cites this as a strong "business" or "daily" scent. Its soapy, woody drydown conveys a sense of maturity and cleanliness that works well in an office, provided you don't over-apply the aggressive opening.
Does it smell sweet because of the vanilla and tonka bean?+−
Not in the modern sense. The vanilla and tonka are used sparingly to round out the sharp edges of the moss and cedar. The overall profile remains spicy, green, and woody rather than gourmand or sweet.
