Which Should You Buy?
A legendary cheapie that punches well above its weight, Animale Animale is a divisive gourmand. Some reckon it's a dated mess; others hail it as a groundbreaking, sexy honey-tobacco dream. Approach with an open mind, particularly for the colder months.
Rumba is a divisive beast, a true love-it-or-hate-it powerhouse from perfumery's wilder days. If you're after something subtle, look away now, because this one's got more personality than a room full of drag queens.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its potent projection and intense sweetness make it less suitable for office or sport. The rich, warm character and strong longevity are ideal for intimate date nights or casual cold-weather outings where its unique profile can shine without overwhelming.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its enormous sillage and longevity, Rumba is definitely not an office-friendly scent unless you want to make an extremely bold statement. Its rich complexity and strong, sensual character make it perfect for evening dates and formal events where you want to be noticed.
