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.
Lunatique is a truly divisive scent; a cold, metallic leather with an otherworldly vibe that you'll either adore for its uniqueness or absolutely despise for its harsh, industrial edge. Not for the faint-hearted.

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 cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its potent, unique profile and strong sillage mean Lunatique is too assertive for the office. It thrives in formal and date settings where its mysterious, bold character can make a lasting impression. Less suitable for casual wear due to its intensity and distinctiveness.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Fresh Spicy, Aromatic, Powdery accords and Musk, Frankincense notes
