Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Juniper Sling EDT

A bracing gin-and-tonic in a bottle: Juniper Sling sparkles with crisp juniper, cool spices, and a whisper of woods. Effortlessly chic, it is the ideal choice for those who crave understated yet distinctive freshness.

Our Verdict - For Him EDT

Barbour's original 2016 aftershave and a genuinely different scent from the green Eau de Parfum that replaced it: spicier, sweeter and more old-school aromatic. Long discontinued but still floating around discounters, and worth the sale price.

Season and Occasion Fit

Juniper Sling

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer Autumn

The bracing gin-like freshness and spicy juniper make it ideal for spring and summer, while the subtle warmth and woody undertone also suit early autumn. Too light and crisp for the depths of winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

Refined but subtle projection makes it excellent for office and casual wear. Its playful freshness is charming on dates, but the lightness and drydown keep it from being too formal or suited to high-energy sport.

For Him

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

Cinnamon, cardamom, tonka and sandalwood are cold-weather materials and the grapefruit opening is too brief to carry it through heat. The violet leaf gives it just enough green coolness for spring.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Date Formal

An aromatic spicy of moderate projection is easy in an office and natural on a countryside weekend, but it lacks the polish and the weight expected of formal evening wear.
