Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Whisky Sugar Skull Eau de Toilette

Whisky Sugar Skull is a divisive beast: some will find its dark, floral heart utterly compelling, others will simply run a mile. It is a bold, take-no-prisoners fragrance that demands attention, so don't expect to blend in.

Statement

Our Verdict - Shaft of Light Eau de Parfum

This is a clean, bright citrus floral that's either a ray of sunshine or glorified dish soap, depending on who you ask. If you're after a subtle, uplifting scent for quiet moments, this will hit the mark, but don't expect it to scream for attention.

Best For:

Date Formal

Given its strong floral and animalic accords, Whisky Sugar Skull leans more towards evening and special events. It is probably too intense for the office or casual daytime wear, but could make a statement at a formal gathering or a date where you want to be noticed.
