Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rake & Ruin
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it beast. Some find it a masterpiece of dark artistry; others reckon it smells like a burnt skip fire in a pickle factory. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but if you're into rugged, challenging scents, this might just be your new obsession.

Our Verdict - Terra
This one is a divisive beast: some hail it as the ultimate masculine scent, raw and primal, while others dismiss it as a cheap imitation. If you're after a bold, earthy statement, Terra delivers, but it's not for the faint of heart or those craving mass appeal.

Season and Occasion Fit

Rake & Ruin

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Also Works:
Date Casual

This scent is far too potent and divisive for office wear or formal events, with many reviews mentioning its challenging nature. It leans masculine and works best for casual outings or dates in colder weather, where its unique character can shine without overwhelming.

Terra

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Autumn

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

Occasions

Also Works:
Date Casual

Its potent projection and intense, earthy-smoky character make it far too overpowering for an office setting and unsuitable for sport. It suits casual wear for those who want to make a statement, and can work for dates if you're aiming for an edgy, intriguing persona, though it's certainly not a crowd-pleaser. Formal events would be a push, unless you want to smell like you just emerged from a volcano.
