Which Should You Buy?
A legendary statement scent, Poison is unapologetically bold, mysterious, and complex. Its intoxicating blend of plum, tuberose, incense, and amber is unforgettable and not for the faint of heart.
This Y2K classic is divisive by design. Ultraviolet is not for the faint of heart, but those who 'get it' swear by its unique violet-pepper-apricot blend for a truly unforgettable scent. Just watch out for that dodgy atomizer.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The rich, opulent character and heavy sillage of Poison make it ideal for cold weather. Its deep fruits, spicy florals, and ambery warmth are overwhelming in heat but luxurious in fall and winter.
Occasions
Poison is far too bold and intense for office or sporty situations, but it shines in formal evening settings or dramatic social occasions where its iconic presence is welcome.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its potent projection and longevity make it less suitable for office wear, but perfect for making a statement on a night out or during casual events. While some find it too strong for formal settings, its unique character works well for those wanting to stand out.
