Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - In Red Eau de Toilette
This one's a quiet charmer, a fresh and spicy floral that consistently earns compliments. It's an energetic mood-booster, perfect for everyday wear, though some find its spiciness a tad much for warmer climes.

Our Verdict - Artisan Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper British farce - a brilliant citrus-floral opening swiftly followed by a disappearing act. You'll love the smell, but you'll curse the performance. A divisive affair, some swear by its unique charm, whilst others rate it as nothing more than an expensive air freshener.

Season and Occasion Fit

In Red Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, clean, and subtly spiced nature makes it highly suitable for casual and office wear, as many reviews highlight its non-offensive character. While it has an elegant touch, it leans more towards daytime and informal settings than formal evening events, with moderate longevity and sillage contributing to its versatility.

Artisan Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, clean citrus and white floral profile is non-offensive and ideal for close-quarters like the office, though its poor longevity means constant reapplication. It's perfect for casual wear, especially in hot weather, as it never projects too strongly. It lacks the gravitas for formal events and the bold presence for a date.
