Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rose Noir EDP
Rose Noir is a divisive one. There's a brilliant, moody rose and moss core for some, while for others, it's a sour, fleeting mess. Not a safe blind buy, so sample before committing - your chemistry may vary wildly.
Statement
Our Verdict - Silk Blossom EDC
A pretty, delicate floral that's either a dream for hot, humid days or an overpriced disappointment with vanishing longevity. Expect little 'wow' factor but plenty of easygoing charm if it works for you.

Season and Occasion Fit

Rose Noir

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its bold, sensual character, along with reports of decent sillage and longevity from some wearers, makes it an unsuitable choice for the office. However, its sophisticated and mysterious aura is perfectly suited for date nights and special evening events.

Silk Blossom

Seasons

Best For:
Spring

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its light, clean floral and fruity character makes it perfect for casual wear and the office, where it's unlikely to offend. However, its often-criticised poor longevity and sillage mean it might not make an impact for dates or formal events where more presence is desired.
