Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vert d'Encens EDP
A truly unique green-amber scent that divides opinion but clearly captivates. It's either an addictive, mysterious forest floor dream or a cloying, messy confusion. Try before you buy, if you can even find it given its cult-favourite discontinued status.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Original EDT
Denim Original is a ridiculously good value throwback. It's a proper masculine powerhouse, not for the faint-hearted or those precious about smelling "modern". Embrace the old-school charm and the compliments from those who appreciate a true classic - if you don't mind smelling like a rugged, ax-wielding bear-fighter.

Season and Occasion Fit

Vert d'Encens

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, combined with its distinct, somewhat 'gothic' woody-amber character, make it less suitable for office wear. However, its complex blend is highly appropriate for evening dates and formal events, though some find it versatile enough for sophisticated casual wear.

Original

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its bold, old-school aromatic and woody accords, combined with its strong performance, make it less suitable for a typical office environment. However, its clean, masculine profile and 'gym-scent' mentions make it excellent for casual wear and sport, while its classic appeal can work for a confident date or a less stuffy formal event.
