Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Hypnotic Poison EDP
A legendary vanilla-almond bombshell that seduces with hypnotic warmth, creamy sweetness, and an unmistakable aura. Not for the timid, this is a true statement scent for those who want to be remembered.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Devotion Intense EDP
This flanker swings wildly between a gourmand masterpiece and an absolute scrubber. It's a divisive hazelnut orange blossom bomb, dialling up the intensity on the original D&G Devotion, but not for everyone. Expect love-it-or-hate-it reactions from this beast-mode scent.

Season and Occasion Fit

Hypnotic Poison

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

The lush vanilla and almond, with spicy licorice, make this a powerhouse for winter and fall, wrapping the wearer in warmth and sweetness. It can work on cool spring nights but may be cloying in summer heat.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its bold, seductive character is perfect for romantic dates and evening occasions. The strong projection and sweetness can overwhelm in close, professional, or athletic settings.

Devotion Intense

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and strong gourmand character make it too overwhelming for an office, yet perfect for a date or special evening out. While some find it too sweet for casual wear, its warmth suits colder weather casual outings, but definitely not suitable for sport.
