Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Art Du'
If you're after a Sauvage Elixir vibe without the designer price tag, Armaf's Art Du' is a solid shout. It's a powerhouse for special occasions, though the community is split on whether it truly lives up to its inspiration or if it's just another synthetic pretender.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Vanilj
Maya Njie's Vanilj is a wonderfully divisive cardamom explosion; a polarising take on vanilla that's either a warm, comforting Swedish bakery bun or a cold, medicinal spice cupboard. Best for those who know real cardamom.

Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Casual

Its potent nature, with strong projection and longevity, makes it a bit much for the office but perfect for formal events and date nights where you want to make an impression. The warm, spicy accords are versatile enough for casual evening wear if applied sparingly.
