Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mr Harrod Eau de Parfum
This one's a divisive beast. Some rave about its unique fruity-tobacco blend, while others slag off its performance and question the price. If you can actually find it, you might just find a new obsession.

Our Verdict - Oud du Jour Eau de Parfum
Don't let the name fool you - this isn't an oud bomb, despite the strong sillage and longevity. It's a classy, sweet-fruity-oud for those who want a crowd-pleasing scent for cooler weather. A true masterpiece for some, a 'Tuscan Leather' clone to others, but one thing is clear: it's not a true oud fragrance.

Season and Occasion Fit

Mr Harrod Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its intimate projection and complex, warm fruity-tobacco profile make it ideal for cooler evening dates and sophisticated formal events. However, its intensity and lack of 'freshness' render it less suitable for office wear or active casual settings.

Oud du Jour Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual Formal

Despite its strong sillage and longevity, many users find this wearable in an office setting due to its well-balanced, less aggressive oud profile. Its elegant fruity-sweet character with warm spicy undertones makes it perfect for dates and evening events, while still being appealing for smart casual wear; however, it's far too rich for sport.
