Which Should You Buy?
A truly polarising scent, Baudelaire provokes strong reactions. Some hail it as a masterpiece of dark luxury, a complex journey through incense and leather. Others find it unoriginal, fleeting, or simply too much. Love it or hate it, Baudelaire certainly leaves an impression.
Monolith is a fierce, untamed beast of a fragrance, divisive yet captivating. It's an unapologetically challenging art piece for those who crave intensity, not a crowd-pleasing scent for shrinking violets.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.
Occasions
The strong, dark accords of leather, incense, and amber make it too heavy for widespread office use, though some find it suitable. Its mysterious and warm character, coupled with good longevity, makes it ideal for dates and evening formal events rather than casual or sport activities.
Seasons
An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.
Occasions
With its immense projection and intense smoky, earthy character, Monolith is far too strong for office or formal wear. It's a statement fragrance, best suited for niche casual events or nights out where its unique profile can be appreciated without overwhelming others.
