Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lothair EDP
Lothair is a quietly sophisticated aromatic-woody tea fragrance with a green fig twist, projecting understated confidence and refined British elegance. Its complexity sets it apart for those seeking something subtly unique.
Favourite
Our Verdict - 1988 EDP
A modern homage to classic green aromatics, 1988 is for those who appreciate a refined, slightly retro vibe. It's well-blended and elegant, though its longevity leaves some wanting more for the price.

Season and Occasion Fit

Lothair

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

Lothair's aromatic, green, and spicy facets make it ideal for spring and fall, when its complexity and freshness shine without being overpowering. Its woody base and moderate sweetness can work in cooler weather, but it may be too dense for peak summer or deep winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

The refined yet approachable character is perfect for the office, dates, and casual outings. Its moderate projection keeps it elegant and inoffensive, while the unique tea and fig notes add a touch of intrigue without being too bold for formal settings.

1988

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its moderate sillage and refined profile make it suitable for office and casual wear, projecting an aura of composed freshness. While elegant enough for formal settings, its performance might not last a full evening, and it's too subtle for a boisterous night out.
