Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mixed Emotions Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper divisive scent, true to its name. You'll either love its weird, smoky blackcurrant tea vibe or recoil from its 'cat pee' and 'BBQ sauce' undertones. Definitely not a blind buy, but if it clicks for you, it's a unique and captivating masterpiece.

Our Verdict - Absinth Eau de Parfum

Absinth is a divisive green fragrance, pulling no punches with its earthy, bitter wormwood and vetiver profile. Some love its unique, mysterious depth, while others find it too sharp or fleeting for the price. Not a safe blind-buy by any measure.

Date

Also Works:

Casual

Its strong, unique character and moderate sillage make it less ideal for office settings where subtlety is preferred. However, its bold and mysterious allure is well-suited for dates and edgy casual outings, particularly in colder weather as noted by reviewers. The smoky and woody accords might be too informal for many formal events.

Also Works:

Date Casual

Given its strong, unique green-woody character and often limited projection, Absinth isn't ideal for office wear. It shines in more intimate date settings or formal evening events where its mysterious, sophisticated aura can be appreciated without being overpowering. Its earthy, natural vibe also suits outdoorsy casual moments, but it's far too complex and rich for sport.
