Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Delphinus EDP
This is a seriously polarising one. Some reckon it's a classy, modern masterpiece, a sweet and smoky head-turner. Others? A cloying, chemical mess that smells like medicinal cherry or a glorified air freshener. Definitely try before you buy, especially given that price tag.

Season and Occasion Fit

Delphinus

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

While some find it good for the office, its moderate to strong projection and luxurious, sweet profile make it better suited for dates and formal events. Many reviews lean towards 'sundown scent' and 'special occasions', suggesting it's too much for casual wear, and definitely not for sport.

Patchouli & Benjoin

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its rich, dark, and complex gourmand profile, combined with a potent sillage and longevity, makes it less suitable for an office setting. However, these same qualities make it a standout for dates and formal events, though perhaps a bit much for casual daytime wear.
