While I don't agree with homme/male direction as I reckon this kind of advertising promotes the bad idea that male skincare should be limited to certain products, despite all skincare being suitable for both genders and usually having the same ingredients anyway, I do like it, it being basically the FTE suited for oilier skin types is what drew me to this one. It seems to work just as well as the original counterpart, but I usually start to see effects when I've used to a half to a third of the bottle so I won't be able to give my full thoughts. I just wish that their packaging is as sleek and chic as the original one, I'm not sure why there was a downgrade (as it has more, stained glass might be expensive or because men are clumsier?) but the bottle is actually plastic in this one and it does make it feel cheaper, though it still looks very elegant. The very convenient and easy twist top of the original is also switched to just a screw top, which I don't like as I prefer the ease of the former. This one also have 50mLs more than the original one for just 1 dollar more which is of good value.
