Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect a challenging, animalic oud opening that demands patience, but stick with it and you'll be rewarded with a rich, fruity-amber dry down that many consider a masterpiece. Definitely not for the faint-hearted, but seriously addictive for the initiated.
This is a seriously divisive fragrance, a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect beast-mode performance but be warned: some will find this chocolate-laden beast overpowering, bordering on obnoxious.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
With beast-mode performance and a highly polarising opening, this fragrance is far too loud and challenging for an office environment. It shines on a date or for formal events where its unique character can truly make a statement, but only once the initial challenging notes have dissipated.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its nuclear projection and lasting power make it unsuitable for office environments, as it risks overwhelming others. This is a cold-weather scent for dates and nights out where its bold, sweet, and somewhat edgy character can shine without being cloying.
