Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Made to Measure Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Reviews are all over the shop; some absolutely love its subtle charm, others reckon it's a weak, forgettable mess. Expect either a pleasant surprise or utter disappointment.
Statement
Our Verdict - de Velours Eau de Toilette
A truly gorgeous, plush fruity leather that's all about quiet luxury and understated power. It's universally loved and tragically discontinued, making it a cult favourite for a reason.

Season and Occasion Fit

Made to Measure Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its generally weak projection and inoffensive nature make it perfect for the office or casual day wear where subtlety is key. Some find it suitable for dates due to its gentle aura, but its lack of strong sillage limits its impact in formal settings or during sport.

de Velours Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate projection and sophisticated leather-plum-rose profile make it ideal for dates and formal events, leaving an impression without overwhelming. The lack of fresh notes and its rich, warm character make it entirely unsuitable for sport.
