Our Verdict

Mixed Emotions is a polarizing luxury scent, while Soul Reflections is a safer, budget-friendly option. Mixed Emotions delivers a challenging blend of smoky blackcurrant tea with controversial nuances. Soul Reflections offers spicy freshness, which is more versatile. If you prefer unique and artistic fragrances, Mixed Emotions is the choice. If you want a more accessible and affordable scent for everyday wear, go with Soul Reflections. Mixed Emotions is a risky blind buy, but Soul Reflections is a crowd-pleaser.

Our Verdict - Mixed Emotions EDP
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.

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

Best For:
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.
