Which Should You Buy?
Lyric Woman is a divisive beast, a deep, complex rose for the seasoned palate. Some find it a gothic masterpiece, others a dusty relic, but everyone agrees it's a bold statement.
This one's a divisive beast, lauded as a modern classic by some, yet dismissed as "cat piss" or "medicinal cinnamon" by others. Proceed with caution. Its loyal fans adore the warm, spicy comfort it offers, especially in colder weather. The overriding consensus suggests it's a bold, sensual oriental for those who 'get' it.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
This is a bold, powerful fragrance with significant sillage and longevity, making it less suitable for office environments where heavy scents can be distracting. Its warm, sensual and ambery nature makes it perfect for date nights and formal events, though some find it versatile enough for more casual, cooler weather wear. It is certainly not a sport scent.
