Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Love Intense EDT
A truly gorgeous powdery floral that divides opinion, but those who love it truly adore it. It's a cashmere sweater in scent form, a more intense and elegant take on the original, perfect for those who appreciate a rich, mature floral with a hint of vanilla.

Our Verdict - Sole Patchouli EDP
This one's a divisive marvel. Some call it a masterpiece of modern patchouli; others recoil from its medicinal bite. It’s either a fresh, clean take on a classic or a harsh, synthetic mess. Definitely try before you buy, as 'Sole Patchouli' ignites strong opinions.

Season and Occasion Fit

Love Intense

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

This perfume's rich, intense floral and balsamic accords, combined with impressive longevity and sillage, make it better suited for evening and formal wear. While some find it appropriate for the office if applied lightly, its strength leans more towards special occasions than everyday casual or sport.

Sole Patchouli

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its potent projection and longevity suggest a 'less is more' approach across occasions. While versatile due to its fresh, clean patchouli, its intensity might be too much for a formal office setting. It shines in casual and date settings where its unique presence can be appreciated without overwhelming.
