Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Escentric 04 EDT
A hyper-modern citrus-woody that balances zesty grapefruit and gin-like juniper with a futuristic sandalwood base. It is both luminous and quietly assertive, perfect for those who crave clean freshness with a twist.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Santal Musk 34 EDP
A budget version of Kayali's Freedom Musk Santal 34. The clean, velvety musk-and-sandalwood signature - white florals over creamy amber - comes through, and since Kayali scents are famously soft and modest-lasting, this dupe sits close in character, just a shade simpler in the drydown.

Season and Occasion Fit

Escentric 04

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

Luminous grapefruit and herbal freshness make it ideal for spring and summer, but the woody base and subtle warmth from sandalwood and resins allow for versatility in fall. Its airy nature is less suited to deep winter cold.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Moderate projection and clean, modern freshness make it office and casual friendly, while the zesty citrus and soft woods add intrigue for dates. It is a bit too characterful and idiosyncratic for highly formal or sporty settings.

Santal Musk 34

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer Winter

The clean, creamy musk-and-sandalwood character is a soft skin-scent that works across spring, autumn and mild winter rather than summer heat.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its refined, comforting musky warmth is ideal for the office, casual wear and dates without ever being loud.
