Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Quercia EDP
Quercia is a divisive one: a modern take on an old-school masculine fougère that swings from gorgeous complexity to synthetic mess, depending on who you ask. When it hits right, it's a classy, sensual head-turner, but the dry-down can be a gamble.

Our Verdict - Tommy Now EDP
A modern twist on a classic, Tommy Now is a mass-appealing citrus-ginger blast that unfortunately ghosts you quicker than a bad Tinder date. A genuinely pleasant, versatile scent, if you don't mind reapplying every hour or two.

Season and Occasion Fit

Quercia

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate to strong projection and woody, aromatic profile make it suitable for various settings, from a classy office environment to an intimate evening out. However, its richer, more formal character means it's not ideal for active wear.

Tommy Now

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile makes it good for casual wear, office, and sport, especially as a gym bag scent. The poor longevity means it won't overwhelm anyone, making it suitable for closer quarters, but it lacks the depth for formal events or evening dates.
