Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper grower, divisive as hell at first sniff but winning over hearts with its sharp citrus kick and smoky leather dry down. Some rate it a masterpiece, others a rip-off, but it undeniably oozes a sophisticated charm.
The driest and most austere of the six. A herbal cypress and thyme heart over smoked olibanum, leather and moss, with only a flick of mandarin to soften the entrance.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its blend of classic and modern accords makes it versatile, suitable for formal and office settings where a subtle projection is appreciated. While it possesses fresh elements, the underlying sophisticated leather and woody notes ensure it's not a casual throw-on, nor ideal for active sport.
Seasons
Smoked olibanum, leather, moss and cypress make a dry resinous composition that cold air sharpens and summer heat turns acrid. The single mandarin note is too brief to lighten it.
Occasions
Incense and leather give it a serious, slightly severe presence better suited to evenings and formal wear. Projection is contained enough that a tolerant office would cope.
