Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper Marmite moment - you'll either love how it swaddles you in its complex lavender embrace, or you'll be running for the hills. Definitely not a blind buy, get your nose on it first.
Divisive, certainly not a crowd-pleaser for everyone, but loyal Amouage fans see this as a welcome return to form. It's a complex, sophisticated scent, perfect for cooler weather, though some find it lacks innovation given the price.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and decent longevity make it suitable for various settings, though its density and potential to be polarising mean it's best avoided for intense workouts or overly formal daytime office wear. Many reviewers suggest it's versatile but perhaps better suited for evenings or cooler weather, making it a good choice for dates or more relaxed social events.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and sophisticated woody-amber profile make it suitable for formal events and date nights, exuding elegance rather than overpowering. While some find its performance moderate, the complexity and density of the notes suggest it's best suited for cooler weather and situations where a subtle, refined presence is appreciated, rather than casual daytime wear or sport.
