Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Inez & Vinoodh EDP
Divisive, challenging, and utterly unique, Byredo's 1996 is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect strong opinions, and don't even think about a blind buy. If you connect with its strange, atmospheric charm, it's an undeniable signature scent.

Season and Occasion Fit

Inez & Vinoodh

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent projection and long-lasting nature, coupled with its heavy, complex accords, make it unsuitable for office and sport. The unique, powerful character leans towards date nights and formal events where you want to make a memorable, if potentially polarising, statement.

Moccus

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its complex, deep, and long-lasting nature makes it less suitable for casual daytime wear or an office environment where subtlety is key. However, its rich character and warm accords are perfectly suited for evening events, formal occasions, and intimate date nights where it can truly shine and create a memorable presence.
