Detour Noir Intense

Which Should You Buy?
This one's a head-scratcher. Some reckon it's a dead ringer for Pegasus, while others smell Lacoste Noir - or nothing much at all. What everyone agrees on is that it's strong and a bit of a bargain, making it a safe blind buy for those who like a gamble.
Divisive and not a safe blind buy, Detour Noir Intense demands patience and an appreciation for its unique, intense character. Some will love its creamy, woody vanilla, while others are put off by a 'dirty ashtray' opening. Test before you invest, and let it macerate.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its potent projection and longevity, as often noted, make it less suitable for an office environment unless applied sparingly. However, its clean, warm profile shines on dates, evenings, and casual outings, offering a sophisticated yet inviting aura. It's a bit too dark and heavy for sports.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and cloying potential, this perfume is better suited for dates and formal events where its richness can shine. While some find it office-appropriate, many note its intensity makes it less ideal for close-quarter professional settings, and its depth rules out sport.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Almond, Vanilla, Powdery accords and Lavender, Almond notes
