Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - ennui-noir Eau de Parfum
Divisive, dark, and utterly unique, ennui-noir is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. It's a statement scent for those who embrace the melancholic and sophisticated, but definitely not a blind buy for the faint of heart.

Our Verdict - Heroes Extrait
Pleasant but a tad generic, Heroes is a versatile woody vanilla that aims for crowd-pleasing sophistication without quite hitting the unique mark. Good for everyday, but don't expect it to blow your socks off.

Season and Occasion Fit

ennui-noir Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent projection and long-lasting nature make it too assertive for office wear. However, its rich, dark character and perceived elegance allow it to shine on formal occasions and romantic date nights, especially in cooler weather.

Heroes Extrait

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Summer Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

With moderate sillage and good longevity, Heroes is versatile enough for daytime wear, including the office, though its warmth leans it more towards casual and date settings. It's not punchy enough for formal events or light enough for sport.
