Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Paris – Édimbourg Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper grower, isn't it? Initially divisive, with some finding it 'medicinal' or 'like an old lady', it quickly wins over most, transforming into a beloved, unique woody aromatic that truly shines. Definitely a must-try before you buy, though.

Our Verdict - Book Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper divisive scent. Book is either a creamy, cosy hug of woody freshness or a jarring dill pickle in a bottle. If you're a Santal 33 fan, you might just find a cheaper alternative in this woody-aromatic number, but be warned, not everyone gets the memo.

Season and Occasion Fit

Paris – Édimbourg Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

Also Works:

Autumn

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual Sport

Also Works:

Date Formal

Its fresh, clean, and rather subtle projection makes it excellent for office and casual wear, avoiding any obtrusive loudness. While some find it too masculine for formal settings, its sophisticated undertones allow for lighter evening wear, though it's not a powerhouse performer for dates.

Book Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

Also Works:

Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Casual

Also Works:

Office Date

Its moderate projection and fresh, woody profile make it suitable for casual wear and daily use. It's a bit too divisive and understated for formal events, and while fresh, its woody depth isn't ideal for vigorous sport.
