Which Should You Buy?
An oriental floral interpretation of Xerjoff Casamorati 1888, opening with a saffron-pepper spice over a ylang-rose heart and a patchouli-amber-sandalwood base.
Seriously divisive stuff, this. Some reckon it's a 'holy grail' of luxury and sensuality, while others are reminded of 'strawberry baby throw-up' or 'old lady' scents. It's a statement, alright, just make sure it's *your* statement.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The saffron-clove top and patchouli-amber-sandalwood base sit firmly in the warm-spicy woody zone that flourishes in cold weather and reads heavy in summer heat.
Occasions
Moderate-to-strong projection and warm oriental shape make it a confident evening, date and dressier-formal pick; too heavy for sport and a touch much for warm-weather office.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and excellent longevity, Brompton Immortals is best reserved for occasions where it can truly shine without overwhelming. Its rich, dense profile makes it unsuitable for sport and a bit much for casual wear or the office, but perfect for dates and evening formal events.
