Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Zafferano EDP
This one's a divisive bugger, half the crowd calls it a delicate skin scent and the other half a beast. What's not up for debate is the luxurious, complex blend of saffron, florals, and a surprisingly modern fresh bite. Definitely one to try before you buy.

Our Verdict - Stairway to Heaven EDP
A divisive scent for the modern palate. For some, it's an intriguing journey of incense and vanilla; for others, a chaotic mishmash. Definitely not a blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Zafferano

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

Given its moderate to strong performance reported by some and its luxurious, complex accord profile, this scent is ideal for dates and formal events. Its fresh elements and 'inoffensive' nature also make it suitable for office wear, but perhaps not a casual choice for everyone.

Stairway to Heaven

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its distinctive, complex profile with prominent incense and vanilla makes it a bit too bold for a typical office setting, but perfect for dates or evening casual wear. The warmth and spice lend themselves well to cooler weather and social gatherings, though it might be a bit much for formal occasions given its modern edge. It's certainly not suited for sport.
