Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Exit The King EDP
This is a clean-cut chypre with a divisive, almost startlingly retro opening that mellows into a surprisingly complex, modern clean scent. Some find it a bit too old-school or even unpleasant, but for those who get it, it's a unique and addictive 'luxe soap' experience.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Blanc Kogane EDP
Blanc Kogane is a divisive white floral musk, championed by those who adore its clean, sophisticated character but dismissed by others who find it leans too indolic or even 'dirty'. Sample first, because this one's a wildcard.

Season and Occasion Fit

Exit The King

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its clean, fresh character makes it ideal for everyday and casual wear, even in warmer climates, as many reviewers attest. While it can be quite strong initially, it dries down to a pleasant scent suitable for office environments, though perhaps not for formal events where its prominent 'soap' accord might feel out of place.

Blanc Kogane

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Formal
Also Works:
Date

Often described as 'clean' and 'classy', it's well-suited for office environments. While its strong sillage on clothes might occasionally be too much for close quarters, its overall elegant profile makes it versatile for many settings, including dates and formal events, yet too refined for sport.
