Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - For Him Bleu Noir EDT
A cool, enigmatic take on woods and musk, Bleu Noir is understated yet magnetic - a quietly sophisticated scent for men who command attention without raising their voice.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Musk Al Ghazal EDP
This is a bold, divisive, beast of a musk. Some find it a treasure; others, an overwhelming spice bomb. If you're after true animalic musk, this could be your holy grail - but sample first, because it's certainly not for the faint of heart.

Season and Occasion Fit

For Him Bleu Noir

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

The spicy-woody structure and musky depth make this ideal for fall and spring, while the clean freshness allows some versatility in cooler summer evenings and milder winter days.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its refined musky-woody profile is versatile and professional for office and casual settings, with enough sensuality for dates. Projection and warmth make it less optimal for sporty or ultra-formal settings.

Musk Al Ghazal

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its immense sillage and longevity make it inappropriate for an office or sports setting, as it can overwhelm. The deep, sensual musky and spicy accords lend themselves well to evening dates and formal events, especially in cooler weather.
