Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ardent
Ardent is a smooth, sophisticated rose and beeswax number, a clear step up from TF Noir de Noir for many. Its elegant ambered-rose profile and softer projection make it more versatile, though some feel the performance could be bolder for the price.

Ardent

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

The elegant blend of amber, rose, and beeswax, combined with its moderate projection and pleasant sillage, makes it perfect for date nights and formal events. While it's too refined for sport, its versatility allows for casual wear and even office settings where a more intimate scent is appreciated.

Avid

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Best in autumn and winter - the amber, musky profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Keep it for evening and daily - the amber accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
