Culprits Affection EDP

Which Should You Buy?
Crimson Rocks is a bold, divisive cinnamon bomb with a sticky honeyed rose heart. Some find it a delicious, regal winter warmer, while others are suffocated by the spice and find it too challenging or even 'geriatric'. Definitely try before you buy.
Culprits Affection targets Kilian's Criminal of Love - the dark, jammy saffron-and-Turkish-rose with its smoky tobacco-incense-patchouli base. The dupe captures the spiced-rose heart but renders it flatter and sweeter, with the smoky depth and the famously rich, above-average longevity trimmed to a skin-close presence.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
This is a potent, warm, and spicy fragrance with strong sillage, making it less suitable for office environments where it could be overwhelming. Its sensual honeyed rose and woody base are perfect for dates and evening events, while its unique profile also works for elevated casual wear in cooler months.
Seasons
The dark saffron-rose, tobacco and incense are richest in cool autumn and winter air where the warm, jammy character feels enveloping.
Occasions
A sensual, dark spicy-rose suited to evenings, dates and formal occasions rather than daytime or sport.
