Really don't like A*Men personally, so my vote is for Pure Malt

I have and enjoy both. I like A*Men slightly better than Pure Halt.

Pure Havane is the best out of the A*Men line.

Pure Havane>>>A*Men>>>Pure Malt

Love both, but Pure Malt is more versatile.

Also love both. Can't lose either way.

I have and enjoy both, but A*Men gets my vote personally. I just find that strong opening (tar/patchouli/mint) energizing and amazing in the winter. I will concede that Pure Malt is probably more versatile and might garner more compliments (especially in the opening and mid notes). The whole A Men line can be a bit challenging and too much for some though. So both of these can be love/hate fragrances as far as impressions go. But, I do like both and find A*Men energizing, and Pure Malt soothing.

Own and love both but pure malt takes the cake for being more easy to wear.

I own Pure Havane, Original A*Men, and Pure Malt, and I like them all in that order.

A*Men and Pure Havane. Those are the only two that I care for in the line. Pure malt never appealed to me.

A*Men.

Pure Malt is safer but if you don't care about that like me then go for A*Men. It's worlds cheaper, easier to find and much better in my opinion, if you don't mind the very strong opening. Its not necessarily harsh in the beginning but it is a strong chocolate smell. That's just my nose, though. I like harsh or unusual gourmands.

I've only sampled Pure Malt once, but I loved it. I've yet to try A*Men...but I voted for the one I tried.

Pure malt is easier to wear, but weaker to the original. I too prefer Pure Havanve the most out of the line.
