Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, intriguing, and undeniably unique, De Los Santos is Byredo at its most abstract. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent for those who crave herbal dryness, but be warned: some batches might turn dodgy, so buyer beware.
This one's a proper head-scratcher. While some genuinely love its sweet, clean pear and tobacco blend, a significant chunk of folks report it turning rancid, burnt, or just plain weird. Buy it for the juicy pear, but beware - it might not stick around.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and 'clean' yet 'medicinal' profile make it generally suitable for close-quarters like the office, appealing to those seeking something unique without being overwhelming. However, its often noted poor longevity means it's less ideal for longer engagements like dates or formal events, and the dry herbal character isn't suited for sport.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its musky, subtle nature and generally light projection make it a great everyday casual wear, and appropriate for the office. However, reports of poor longevity suggest it might not hold up for formal events or longer dates.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Musky, Fruity, Powdery accords and Orris, Musk notes
