Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rosewood
Rosewood is a beautifully blended, warm amber that punches well above its weight for the price. While some find the sweetness cloying or detect an unwanted 'animalic' note, most rave about its comforting, clean, and elegant character.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Incitatus
This one's a proper wild ride - Incitatus doesn't hold back, bringing an intense, almost brutal, opening before settling into something powerfully unique. Definitely a love-it-or-hate-it beast, so don't even think about a blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Rosewood

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its moderate sillage and 'clean' yet 'comforting' amber profile make it versatile for most settings. Many found it perfect for the office or casual wear, while its sensual warmth suits a date. It's too soft for formal events and definitively not a sport scent.

Incitatus

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Date

Given its 'atomic longevity' and potent sillage, Incitatus is far too intense for office wear. Its commanding, sophisticated leather and resin accords make it suitable for formal evening events or dates where you want to make a bold statement.
