Which Should You Buy?
Interlude Black Iris is a beast, plain and simple. It's a challenging, polarising beast with massive sillage and longevity. You'll either love its dark, smoky, buttery iris or you'll be running for the hills. Definitely not a blind buy.
This isn't your average syrupy amber; Sel d'Ambre is a divisive, opinionated beast. It's a dry, mineral, and almost austere take on amber that won't be for everyone, but those who love it rave about its unique sophistication and depth.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its strong amber and animalic accords, paired with excellent longevity and noticeable projection, Sel d'Ambre is best suited for evening wear. It's a bit too bold and heavy for everyday casual or office use, but perfect for a sophisticated date night or a formal event where you want to make an impression.
