Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Excellus Men
This one's a mixed bag. Some absolutely love its fresh, creamy dry down and call it a classy alternative, while others are thoroughly unimpressed by the performance and quality control. If you get a good bottle, it's a solid scent for the price.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Talitha
This one's a wildcard. Some rave about its luxurious leather and unique masculine vibe, while others claim it's so faint it barely registers, even accusing it of smelling like bug spray. Proceed with extreme caution and definitely don't blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Excellus Men

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its fresh and clean profile makes it suitable for office and casual wear, especially given its moderate projection. While some find it 'classy for days', others experience very weak performance, which can limit its versatility for formal events or dates where projection is key.

Talitha

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its often intimate sillage and unique, sometimes challenging, character make it less suitable for a casual day or the office, where broad appeal is generally preferred. The luxurious leather and woody notes, combined with the mixed reports on longevity, lean towards evening or formal date wear, though some find it lacks the projection for grand formal events.
