Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rafia Silver

Seriously good for the price, Rafia Silver delivers a fresh, powdery floral that smells far more expensive than it is. It's a genuine crowd-pleaser, evoking a luxurious vibe without the eye-watering cost.

Our Verdict - Bucephalus XV

This one's a bit of a mystery, isn't it? The notes suggest a tantalising unisex floral, but it's proving impossible to track down. A truly covetable phantom of a fragrance.

Season and Occasion Fit

Rafia Silver

Seasons

Best For:

Summer

A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

With decent longevity and moderate sillage, this leans versatile. Its fresh, clean floral character makes it perfect for casual outings or even a subtle date, but it's perhaps a bit too relaxed for very formal settings.

Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual Formal

Also Works:

Office

The elegant floral and amber accords suggest versatility for both formal and date settings, lending a sophisticated touch. Its fresh citrus opening would make it suitable for casual wear, though perhaps not for high-intensity sport.
