Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - New York Intense Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper grown-up scent, divisive as hell but with a passionate following. You'll either get the hype of this classic, masculine powerhouse or you'll think it smells like an old bloke's aftershave before he clipped his nose hairs. It takes a certain wearer, but it's pure class for those who get it.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Fiore di Cotone Eau de Parfum
A divisive scent that some adore for its unique blend of clean and gourmand, while others find the herbal notes a bit challenging. If you like Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male but want something a bit cleaner, this could be your jam.

Season and Occasion Fit

New York Intense Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Office Date

Its sophisticated aromatic and spicy profile, combined with generally good longevity and moderate to strong sillage, makes it perfect for formal events and the office. It's a bit too refined for casual wear and definitely not for sport, while opinions are split on date nights, with some finding it sexy and others too 'old-school'.

Fiore di Cotone Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, somewhat soapy character and moderate intensity make it excellent for casual wear or the office. While nice, the unique scent profile and 'freshly washed clothes' vibe might be a tad too casual for very formal events and it lacks the oomph for a dramatic date night.
