Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - London for Men Eau de Toilette
One of the most beloved designer tobacco scents, London for Men envelops you in spicy warmth and refined nostalgia. It is a comforting, gentlemanly staple for cold weather and evening wear.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Ra'ed Oud Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper statement, not for the faint of heart or those seeking universal affection. It's bold, unapologetic, and divisive - you'll either love its rugged character or be put off by its eccentricities. Definitely not a blind buy unless you like your fragrances challenging.

Season and Occasion Fit

London for Men Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Rich tobacco, cinnamon, and leather give this a warm, enveloping character that excels in fall and winter. The moderate sweetness and woody depth make it less fitting for hot weather but wearable in early spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its spicy-tobacco warmth and moderate boldness suit dates and formal events, while the richness can be a bit much for office or sporty settings. Works for casual evenings, less so for daytime business.

Ra'ed Oud Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Also Works:
Date Casual

Its strong projection and distinct, non-mass-pleasing character make it unsuitable for office wear. While bold, its rugged leather and oud notes might be too intense for some dates, but it can shine in casual settings, especially in cooler weather. It lacks the polish for most formal events.
