Which Should You Buy?
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.
Caftan is a truly divisive scent; some rave about its luxurious incense and amber, calling it a masterpiece, while others dismiss it as an "old lady's closet" or overly synthetic baby powder. Test before you invest in this love-it-or-hate-it amber bomb.

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

Occasions
Its strong projection and longevity make it less suitable for the office, but its sophisticated and alluring amber profile is perfect for dates and formal events. The warmth and depth also lend themselves well to casual evening wear in colder months.
