Vigour EDP
Fleur Narcotique and Vigour share a citrusy, woody base, but diverge significantly in their overall impact. Fleur Narcotique aims for bold, projecting fruity-floral, while Vigour offers a softer, warmer experience. The key difference lies in the intensity and complexity. Fleur Narcotique is a statement fragrance, potentially polarizing due to its strength and price. Vigour prioritizes subtlety and is much easier on the wallet. If you want to be noticed and can handle a potentially sharp edge, go for Fleur Narcotique. If you prefer a gentle, comforting scent, Vigour is the better option.

Ex Nihilo's Fleur Narcotique is a divisive one. It's either a beautiful, fresh-fruity floral masterpiece that pulls compliments, or a screechy, synthetic fabric softener that's aggressively 'clean'. Sample before committing to the hefty price tag.
This one's a quiet charmer. If you want something pleasant, inoffensive, and cheap enough to re-spray all day without a second thought, Vigour is your guy. Don't expect to turn heads, but those close enough will appreciate its subtle warmth.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh, clean, and floral profile makes it highly suitable for office and casual wear, with many reviewers calling it an 'office-appropriate' and 'easy reach' scent. While some find its longevity good for a night out, its relatively softer sillage and linear nature reduce its scoring for formal events and date nights.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its mild projection and moderate longevity make it ideal for office wear, as it's unlikely to offend. While too subtle for formal events, its gentle spicy-woody character could work for an intimate casual date or everyday wear where closeness is key.
