Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Silvanus
A truly divisive scent: some hail it a masterpiece of clean, woody floral, while others find the lily-of-the-valley too overwhelming, synthetic, or just 'screechy'. You definitely need to try this one for yourself first.

Our Verdict - Aurora
Aurora is a seriously divisive oud-rose that you'll either love or desperately want to scrub off. Some find it a jammy, complex masterpiece, others a synthetic, 'floor cleaner' bomb. Definitely not for everyone, best to try before you buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Silvanus

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Formal
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, soapy nature and moderate-to-strong Projection make it suitable for office and formal wear without being overpowering. While unique, it's not overtly seductive for dates, and while fresh, its complexity isn't ideal for active sports.

Aurora

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong projection and the potential for it to be polarising, this isn't for the office. However, it excels in formal and date settings where its bold, luxurious character can shine without overwhelming.
