Which Should You Buy?
A divisive scent for sure: some find it rich and luxurious, while others are left cold by what they perceive as a sharp, boozy, or incomplete offering. You'll either love or loathe this regal blend.
This one's divisive, but if you're chasing that authentic woodland vibe, Rook's Forest 2020 Edition delivers. Expect everything from invigorating pine to a slightly peppery, green drydown, though some find it pinesol-y and fleeting.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its strong sillage and impressive longevity, 'Smell Like A King' is best suited for evening formal occasions or dates where it can command attention without overwhelming. Its woody, aromatic character is a bit much for a casual daytime setting or the office, and certainly not for sport.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its natural, non-overpowering green woody profile makes it superb for casual wear and even light sport. However, the moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its distinct forest theme, might not suit formal settings or a closed office environment for everyone.
