Which Should You Buy?
If you're already flush with boozy-sweet scents, this one might feel a bit too familiar. However, for those new to the genre or seeking a solid alternative, Ashy Wood delivers a surprisingly complex sweet-oud with an interesting mineral edge.
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Delicious Bay is an ambitious marine gourmand that some find intoxicatingly unique, while others describe it as a sweet, salty, and utterly nauseating mess. Proceed with caution and a decant.

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