Which Should You Buy?
A daring twist on fruity rose, this is a bold, gourmand-woody floral that feels both luscious and assertive. For those who want a statement feminine scent with depth, mystery, and modern sensuality.
Elie Saab's first men's scent is certainly divisive. While some find it a sophisticated, old-school masculine triumph, others are not impressed, calling it forgettable, synthetic, and lacking originality. Some even say it's just plain dreadful.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The lush fruit, rich rose, and warm woody-gourmand base make this ideal for cool spring days and the depth and sweetness excel in fall and winter. Summer wear is possible in the evening, but the richness may overwhelm in high heat.
Occasions
Best for dates and casual to semi-formal settings where bold sweetness and sensual florals shine. The projection and opulence make it less suited for office or sporty wear.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its woody-aromatic character makes it versatile, leaning towards more formal or evening wear due to its perceived maturity and intensity. While some find its performance strong, others report poor longevity, suggesting it's not ideal for all-day casual wear or a gym session where a lighter touch is needed.
