%97 is in the “stealth diffusion” package - which does have a very light, almost imperceptible scent which also has good diffusion and reasonable cover properties. 297 is in 6% Akuto which is still light but has a more marked muky scent - its still pretty light though an excellent cover and diffuser.
Its more the sort of impact that differs - IME, MX297 does best in high-impact fun/socil situations where people can let-go their social/sexual inhibitions and have a very good time. 597 is still pleasant fun, socially dominant and uninhibited but its much smoother in effect ant that makes it more widely usable overall IMO.
So if clubs/parties and fun/social places are your main territory, I would suggest the spray but if its more sedate social situations or a wider range of social situations then the maybe the oil is the way to go. Either way AD’s warranty should apply and if you don’t get-on with your initial choice you won’t lose out as they will happily credit you towards an alternative. And some people don’t do well with this mix - as you do need to be able to work it hard in a fun/social direction for it to deliver.
For sexual steering - I’ve always done best with TUTH for 297 and in the absence of an oil-based sexual from AD, Manimal by a rival company seems to complement it very nicely indeed.
