Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Notorious EDP
Notorious is an absolute chameleon, equally likely to spark adoration as it is disdain. Forget the name, it's a classy, intriguing floral with a surprising gourmand twist that some find divine and others, well, just a bit off.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Rose Orage EDP
This one's a mixed bag, a genuinely divisive take on rose that either captivates with its cold, spicy complexity or utterly repels with a jarring metallic, inky edge. Definitely not a blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Notorious

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate sillage and longevity, coupled with its elegant, warm spicy-floral profile, make it suitable for office and sophisticated evenings. However, its distinctive character might be a bit much for casual wear, and it lacks the freshness for sport.

Rose Orage

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Date Casual

Its distinctive and potent aroma, as noted by community reviews, leans away from casual or office wear. The complex and somewhat polarising accords, especially the spicy rose and woody notes, make it better suited for formal events or evening dates where it can make a statement.
