Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Soir d'Orient Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper grown-up scent, divisive as hell but an absolute masterpiece for those who get it. Prepare for an intense, opulent journey; definitely not a casual spritz.

Our Verdict - Amber Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair, not for the faint of heart. It captures that authentic Middle Eastern bazaar vibe, but be warned: some noses find its medicinal, smoky opening a bit much. Give it a minute though, and you might just get hooked.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong, long-lasting projection and bold character, Soir d'Orient is best reserved for evening and formal events, or intimate dates. It's far too intense for casual wear or the office, as many reviewers note it's a 'scent bomb' demanding of its wearer.
