Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Oud Immortel EDP
Divisive and distinctive, Oud Immortel sparks strong opinions. Some find it a fresh, bright take on oud, others a synthetic mess, or a clone of popular fragrances. It's not a safe blind buy, but for those it clicks with, it's a signature scent.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Genre Meeting For Men EDP
A budget take on Margiela's beloved Jazz Club. Genre Meeting captures the warm, boozy-sweet heart of tobacco and vanilla bean lifted by lemon and pink pepper, but without the original's rum note the boozy lift is gentler and the whole thing reads a little sweeter and flatter, the smoky-leather depth not quite as rounded.

Season and Occasion Fit

Oud Immortel

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate to strong projection and unique, sometimes polarising, scent make it less ideal for a conservative office. However, its sophisticated and confident character makes it excellent for dates and formal events, allowing you to stand out. It's also suitable for cooler casual wear, as many users find it versatile across seasons.

Genre Meeting For Men

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Warm tobacco, vanilla and a boozy-sweet base make this a cool-weather scent for autumn and winter; too heavy for warm months.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its cosy, slightly boozy warmth suits evenings, dates and relaxed nights out far more than the office or sport.
