Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Dies Aurorae Eau de Parfum

This is a serious, opulent gourmand for those who appreciate a rich, complex scent. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with some finding it perfectly balanced and others put off by a persistent 'urinal cake' incense note up close. Definitely sample before committing.

Statement

Our Verdict - Patchouli Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper grown-up patchouli, woody and amber-rich without being too dark or earthy. It's a bit of a chameleon, with some finding it a dead ringer for Coromandel's sophisticated cousin, and others detecting a completely distinct cedar focus. Divisive on the exact composition, but generally well-regarded for quality and performance.

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Given its strong longevity and above-average projection, this isn't a subdued office scent. It shines brightest for dates and formal events, where its rich, warm character makes a statement, though its bold, confident nature can also work for casual outings when you want to stand out.
