Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mystique
A powerhouse fruity-coffeed patchouli that divides opinion: some find it a sexy, high-performing sensation that smells far more expensive than it is, others find it a screechy, disjointed mess. Test before you buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Baroque Gold
This one is an absolute powerhouse, a bold and unashamedly sweet declaration. If you want to make an entrance, Baroque Gold has your back - just don't expect any subtlety. It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, but for those who love it, boy do they really love it.

Casual

Autumn

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Occasions

Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong projection and dominant sweet and coffee accords, Baroque Gold is best suited for evenings and going out, especially for dates where its sensual vibe can shine. It's too much for the office but could work for more casual-leaning formal events due to its rich character.
