Scholar of the First Sin is identical to DS2 with all 3 DLCs. It's the equivalent of the Prepare to Die edition of the first game. Aldia, Scholar of the First Sin and the smattering of changes included with SotFS was added to all versions of the game via an official patch.

That said, I haven't had a chance to play it and I would love to know if any of the interactions with Aldia before his boss fight reveal anything major in terms of missing lore for the game.
