Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Carthusia Uomo
This is a quintessential grown-up masculine scent, a classic barbershop vibe that's divisive - some call it timeless, others dated. If you want something fresh, clean, and unmistakably masculine, you'll love it. If you're after anything remotely modern or playful, best steer clear. It's an old-money staple.

Our Verdict - Cadenza
Prepare for a jasmine bomb with Cadenza; it's a love-it-or-hate-it affair. This scent is absolutely massive, lasts forever, and leans decidedly feminine. It's not for the faint of heart, but if you adore potent white florals, this might just be your next obsession.

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Cadenza

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its enormous projection and lasting power make it less suitable for an office environment, where it could be overwhelming. The strong, elegant floral profile lends itself well to formal events and date nights, though its intensity means careful application is key.
