Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Myrrh & Tonka EDC
A divisive but undeniably potent amber and tonka bomb. It's a statement scent, with some calling it a winter must-have and others finding it simply too much. If you like your warmth with serious projection, this is for you.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Mr. Sillage Extrait
Mr. Sillage is a powerhouse that splits opinion down the middle; for some, it's a stellar tribute with beast-mode performance, for others, it's a mentholated, powdery mess. Definitely one to sample before committing, but if it hits the spot, you'll be smelling great for ages.

Season and Occasion Fit

Myrrh & Tonka

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its amber and vanilla dominance make it fantastic for evenings and colder weather, particularly date nights or formal events where its strong projection can shine. However, its intensity means it can be overwhelming for a typical office environment or casual daytime wear.

Mr. Sillage

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its enormous sillage and impressive longevity, Mr. Sillage is best reserved for occasions where it can truly project without overwhelming. It's a fantastic choice for dates and formal evening events, but its strong nature makes it less suitable for quiet office environments or active sports.
