Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Le Lion Eau de Parfum
This one's a true beast, powerful and uncompromising. Le Lion is a masterclass in challenging elegance, it's not a crowd-pleaser for everyone, but if it clicks, it truly roars. Definitely not for the fainthearted; it demands a wearer who can match its gravitas.

Our Verdict - Vinyl Extrait
Vinyl is a bold, divisive scent for those who like their fragrances as expressive and boozy as a night out. It's a powerhouse with photorealistic whiskey and cola, but beware: where some find it addictive and unique, others are left with a synthetic, headache-inducing mess. Definitely not a blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Le Lion Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent projection and intense amber-woody character make it too much for the office. However, its luxurious and commanding presence is perfect for formal events and an intimate, powerful statement on a date. It's too weighty for casual or sport wear.

Vinyl Extrait

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

This extrait is a sillage beast, making it unsuitable for office settings where its strong projection would be overwhelming. Its boozy, sweet, and unique profile makes it a fantastic choice for dates and evening casual outings, though less ideal for formal events where subtlety is often preferred.
