Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ambre Eccentrico EDP
A divisive yet distinctive amber, this one's a Marmite scent - some find it a masterful gourmand hug, others a cloying, syrupy mess. It's a bold move, and definitely not a blind buy for the faint of heart, especially given its cult status and rising price.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Forbidden Apple Croque Moi EDT
A divisive gourmand that delivers baked apple crumble in a bottle. Some find it a delicious, cosy embrace, perfect for autumn evenings; others say it's more Yankee Candle than luxury perfume. Longevity is the biggest complaint, so prepare to overspray.

Season and Occasion Fit

Ambre Eccentrico

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent, dense gourmand nature and strong sillage make it unsuitable for office wear, as it could easily overwhelm. However, its luxurious warmth and 'dress-the-part' vibe make it ideal for special occasions and cooler evening dates where you want to make a statement.

Forbidden Apple Croque Moi

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

While its sweet, fruity, and warm spicy accords make it fantastic for casual and date settings, the gourmand nature might be too distracting for a formal event or the office. Its perceived lower performance also means it's less intrusive than bolder scents.
