Which Should You Buy?
This isn't your mum's Flower. Kenzo Oriental is a divisive beast: a love-it-or-hate-it incense bomb that captivates with its meditative depth, or repels with a sharp, 'unnatural' opening. If you appreciate a confident, smoky oriental, you'll mourn its discontinuation.
A beloved vintage gem, Savannah Gardens is an intoxicating white floral amber that evokes a bygone era of Southern charm and unapologetic femininity. Fans rave about its unique character and lament its discontinuation.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its prominent smoky and amber accords and moderate sillage make it too heavy for most offices. However, its sophisticated and warm character, combined with a sensual vanilla dry-down, is perfect for dates and evening events, creating an inviting yet intriguing aura.
Seasons
An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.
Occasions
Given its 'heavy, heady' nature and 'great projection and very long lasting' performance, Savannah Gardens leans more towards evening and cooler-weather wear. It's a bit much for the office but shines on dates, formal events, or a sophisticated casual outing.
