Which is better for everyday wear?

The Original is the safer everyday pick: lighter citrus and pine, and cheaper per bottle. Black Forest is spicier and warmer, better for cool weather or evenings.

Both are eau de toilette, so expect a few hours. Black Forest's tonka and moss base tends to hold closer to the skin longer than the Original's bright citrus opening.

Is Black Forest worth the extra $4.99?

Yes if you want the bigger 125 ml bottle and a spicier scent. Per ounce it is cheaper: about $5.95 versus $8.00 for the Original.

Are these the same fragrance?

No. The Original is the 1955 pine, juniper and lavender fougère. Black Forest is a separate, spicier release with cardamom, nutmeg and tonka.

Which is better for summer?

The Original. Its lemon, bergamot and bitter orange opening is lighter. Black Forest's spice and tonka suit cooler weather better.

Which do shoppers rate higher?

Only the Original has ratings here: 4.5 out of 5 from 118 ratings. Black Forest shows no rating, so there is no direct comparison.
