Which Should You Buy?
Aromatics Elixir is an uncompromising chypre that demands attention with its assertive, herbal-mossy character and vintage sophistication. Not for the faint of heart, but unforgettable for true lovers of classic perfumery.
Coriandre is a polarising, unapologetically '70s green chypre. Definitely not for the gourmand crowd, but if you're after a sophisticated, timeless scent that stands out, this affordable gem might just be your new obsession.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The mossy, earthy, spicy chypre structure thrives in cool to temperate weather, making this ideal for fall and winter. Spring works for those who love vintage florals and boldness, but the density and lack of sweetness make it less suited for hot summer days.
Occasions
This classic chypre's powerful sillage and complex character suit formal events and evening wear best. Its bold projection and vintage style can be polarizing in the office or casual settings.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and autumn.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and 'clean' yet sophisticated aura make it ideal for office wear, being noticeable without overwhelming. Reviewers highlight its elegance and versatility for both formal and casual settings, though its distinct chypre character means it's less suited for sporty activities.
