Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Grand Soir EDP
A gold-drenched amber masterpiece-majestic, enveloping, and effortlessly luxurious. Grand Soir is the scent of candlelit evenings and timeless elegance, best worn when you want to make an unforgettable impression.
Acquired
Our Verdict - No 39 Grand Soir Extrait
No 39 hits MFK Grand Soir's labdanum-amber-vanilla core convincingly at first spray, but the lavender-benzoin heart is noticeably quieter and the whole composition flattens into a simpler amber-vanilla blend within a few hours where the original stays layered.

Season and Occasion Fit

Grand Soir

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Its deep, sweet resinous amber and vanilla are enveloping and best suited for cold weather, making it a natural fit for winter and fall. The density and warmth may overwhelm in heat, so it is less ideal for spring and rarely suitable for summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Grand Soir is opulent and projects strongly, making it perfect for formal events and romantic evenings. Its richness can be too much for office or casual wear, and it is unsuited for athletic settings.

No 39 Grand Soir

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Autumn

A warm amber-vanilla oriental built for cold weather and evenings, too heavy for spring or summer daywear.

Occasions

Best For:
Date

Sensual and warm, best suited to date nights and cosy evenings rather than the office or sport.
