Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Platinum EDP
Seriously divisive. Some laud it as a beast, others as watered-down rubbish, making it a complete gamble. If you get a good batch, it's a modern, versatile amber-woody stunner. If not, you're out of luck.

Our Verdict - Encens Satin EDP
Encens Satin is a smooth operator - a refined, buttery amber-incense that whispers rather than shouts. While it's lauded for its sophisticated blend, some find its gentle nature, especially given the hefty price tag, a bit underwhelming compared to bolder incense options. Still, it's a classy crowd-pleaser.

Season and Occasion Fit

Platinum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its moderate sillage and warm, woody accords make it a versatile choice for many settings, leaning slightly more towards evening or social wear. It can work in an office if applied lightly, but it's not a freshie for sport.

Encens Satin

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate sillage and smooth, inoffensive nature make it suitable for office wear, especially since it's not overpowering. The sensual amber and incense notes, combined with its refined character, make it an excellent choice for a date or formal events. It's too rich and warm for active sport.
