Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Opus XV King Blue EDP
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.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Lots Of Pecks EDP
A budget take on Lush 1000 Kisses' cult resinous comfort scent. Lots Of Pecks captures the orange-marmalade osmanthus opening and the labdanum-and-myrrh resin warmth, though it renders the original's surprising depth flatter and a little simpler.

Season and Occasion Fit

Opus XV King Blue

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

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.

Lots Of Pecks

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

The resinous labdanum-myrrh warmth feels cosy and balsamic in autumn and winter cold, too heavy for summer heat.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date

Its comforting, sophisticated warmth suits casual days, daily wear and relaxed evenings over formal or sporty use.
