Which Should You Buy?
This one's a passionate affair, not a casual fling. Criminal of Love is a dark, sensual rose-tobacco blend that polarises with its intensity. While some find it an intoxicating masterpiece, others are put off by its 'medicinal' opening. Definitely not for the faint of heart, or for the office, apparently.
A luxurious Middle Eastern-inspired fragrance that commands attention with its powerful oud and spice mix.

Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and overtly sensual nature, this scent is entirely unsuitable for the office, as many reviewers agree. It shines brightest on dates or for special evening occasions where its captivating, dark intensity can truly be appreciated, making it a poor choice for casual wear or sport.
Seasons
The warm spicy and oud notes are particularly suited for cooler temperatures, making it ideal for fall and winter. However, its complexity can be appreciated in spring as well.
Occasions
The intensity and projection make it suitable for formal occasions and dates where a strong scent is appreciated. It might be too powerful for sports activities.
