Is it worth spending extra couple of thousands on older batch of YSL La nuit de l'homme?

So I have contacted one of the pinned resellers and enquired him about LNDH. He quoted two different prices,mind it the difference is a couple of thousands(3,450 to be exact)(both testers), reasoning that the expensive one is from the 2016 batch and the less expensive one is like the latest batch.

Is it worth spending that much on an older batch?

I ordered a decant sample of the old batch to check it myself.(I already have a newer batch decant with me).
