Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ambre Sultan Eau de Parfum
A divisive yet iconic amber, Ambre Sultan is either a dark, resinous masterpiece or a trip to a medicinal spice cupboard. It's not for everyone, but those who 'get' it consider it a warm, enveloping classic.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Midnight Oud Eau de Parfum
This is a beast of a fragrance, a divisive love-it-or-hate-it scent that punches way above its price point. It's smoky, spicy, and utterly unapproachable for some - a bold statement for those who dare.

Season and Occasion Fit

Ambre Sultan Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong, complex amber and resinous profile, combined with varying reports of projection, make it a bit much for most office environments. However, its sophisticated warmth is perfectly suited for cooler weather dates, formal evenings, and even adds an intriguing touch to a casual winter outfit.

Midnight Oud Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Date

With its nuclear projection and immense longevity, this is not an office-friendly scent; it's far too intrusive. It suits cold evenings and formal events where leaving a strong impression is desired, though some find it too challenging for even a date.
