Our Verdict - Mixed Emotions
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.

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.
