Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vanagloria
This Dominique Ropion creation divides opinion sharply, with some reviling its 'burnt rubber' opening, while others are utterly seduced by its smoky, sexy vanilla dry-down. If you can push through the rough start, you're in for a complex, masterful vanilla that smells far more expensive than it is. Prepare for compliments.

Our Verdict - Drunk Saffron
This one's a divisive beast. Some find its boozy, syrupy charm utterly intoxicating, a "lickable" gourmand dream. Others are put off by a challenging opening, smelling everything from industrial plastic to medicinal cough syrup. One thing's for sure: it never sits quietly.

Drunk Saffron

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its intense, boozy and vanilla-rich profile makes it a stellar choice for dates and formal evening events, as many reviews suggest its 'sexy' and 'seductive' qualities. However, the strong opening and occasional divisive notes mean it’s not best suited for the office or casual daytime wear where subtlety is preferred.
