Which Should You Buy?
A divisive yet fascinating scent, La Myrrhe is either a "masterpiece" or a "bizarre wear" depending on your take on its challenging aldehydic opening, complex character, and an almost medicinal but still sweet myrrh accord. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
Almanera is the ultimate crowd-pleaser for those who adore creamy, spiced gourmands. It's so expertly blended, some find it hard to pick out individual notes, leading to a smooth, sophisticated scent. A gentle luxury that whispers, rather than shouts, its quality.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Given its strong sillage, long longevity, and complex profile, La Myrrhe is best suited for formal events and dates where its distinctive character can shine without overwhelming those around you. It's too potent for casual wear or the office, and certainly not appropriate for sport.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its gentle projection and warm, inviting nature make it incredibly versatile for casual and date wear, while its sophistication allows it to bridge into formal settings without being overpowering. The milky-gourmand character is less suited for an athletic environment, and its subtlety means it won't be a distraction in the office.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Amber, Warm Spicy, Sweet accords and Jasmine, Musk notes
