Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Marasma Extrait
A truly divisive scent, Bois 1920's Marasma is either a refined, sun-kissed marine dream or a sickly sweet flashback to childhood scented erasers. Brutally strong, it will get you noticed, for better or worse.

Our Verdict - Magnetic Magma Extrait
This one's a proper beast - intense, artistic, and not for the faint-hearted. It divides opinion sharply, a challenging wear that's more an experience than a crowd-pleaser.

Season and Occasion Fit

Marasma Extrait

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Given its strong performance and unique, attention-grabbing profile, Marasma isn't the best fit for a formal environment or a conservative office. It shines brightest in casual or date settings, particularly warmer weather, where its marine-fruity character can be fully appreciated.

Magnetic Magma Extrait

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Date

Given its 'bombastic' projection and 'very long-lasting' performance, this one is far too much for the office or casual wear. It's best reserved for formal occasions or specific date nights where a bold statement is desired, though even then, its challenging nature means it's not universally appropriate.
