Mena
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This woody-boozy scent smells like a festive log cabin or a hamster cage, depending on who you ask. A divisive scent that works best on certain skin chemistries, so don't blind buy.
Mena is a scent that provokes strong reactions. Prepare yourself for an orthodox church in a bottle, a rich, resinous amber and sandalwood affair. Some find it a spiritual masterpiece, others a challenging, even 'soiled nappy' scent. It's truly a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and woody-boozy accords make it unsuitable for office wear, but perfect for date nights or casual outings. It's a bit too casual for formal events, and its warmth doesn't align with sport activities.
Seasons
A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.
Occasions
Its rich, resinous character and significant projection make it unsuitable for an office setting. However, the luxurious, warm amber and sandalwood make it an ideal choice for a date or formal evening, while being a bit too heavy for casual daytime wear.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Woody, Warm Spicy, Aromatic accords and Sandalwood, Saffron notes
