Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Declaration d'Un Soir Eau de Parfum

This is a masterpiece that should never have been discontinued. An elegant, fresh, and spicy rose for men that turns heads without shouting, though some find it a touch too floral or dated. It's often debated if it's truly masculine, but it definitely leaves an impression.

Our Verdict - White Sandalwood Eau de Parfum

This one's a divisive beast. Many find it an offensive, synthetic mess of screechy rose and camphor, while others praise its sophisticated, creamy sandalwood. If you love it, you'll really love it, but approach with extreme caution.

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

Also Works:

Winter

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

Occasions

Also Works:

Date Formal

Given its strong projection and often polarising scent profile, this isn't a safe bet for the office or casual wear where you might bother others. Its bold character and potential for elegance make it better suited for formal events or date nights, provided it works with your skin chemistry.
