Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The Big Bad Cedar EDP
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair, polarizing opinions like few others. If you're after an authentic, unapologetic cedar, Big Bad Cedar delivers in spades, but some find its performance frustratingly elusive.

Our Verdict - Angelic EDP
This one's a divisive beast. Some swear by its woody-amber warmth, others find it screechy and overpriced. If you're after a loud, unique statement and aren't afraid to splash the cash, give it a go.

Season and Occasion Fit

The Big Bad Cedar

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its woody, aromatic profile makes it versatile for casual and date settings, with some finding it suitable for an office if applied lightly. However, for many, the intimate sillage makes it better suited for closer encounters rather than formal events or sporty activities.

Angelic

Seasons

Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring Summer

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:

While some find it too much for everyday wear, its warmth offers versatility for upscale casual settings.
