Which Should You Buy?
This one's a divisive beast. Many find it an intriguing smoky vanilla with a luxurious, doughy sweetness, while others are put off by a 'burnt', 'medicinal', or even 'plastic' opening. Definitely sample before you commit.
This discontinued gem is probably the most missed men's release ever, with vanilla and orange blossom creating a unique 'frozen' feeling. It's polarising, but its fans are borderline obsessive and united in their plea for Dior to bring it back. Seriously, people are petitioning.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.
Occasions
Its distinctive smoky and sweet character, along with its moderate projection, makes it less suited for a conservative office but ideal for dates or casual outings where you want to make an impression. While intriguing, its unique profile might be too avant-garde for most formal events.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and generally inoffensive, clean character make it versatile for most casual and office settings, though some find it a bit too sweet for formal events. The fresh qualities of orange blossom and its 'cool' feel also loan it to warmer weather, making it a good choice for casual daytime wear.
