Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Colosseum
A divisive take on a popular scent profile, Colosseum is a boozy, fruity amber that some find irresistible, while others are left cold by its sharp edges and perceived lack of depth. Love it or leave it, it's certainly got people talking.
Statement
Our Verdict - Sweet Dates
This one's a mixed bag, with some finding an affordable, subtly sweet resinous scent, while others get nothing but burnt rubber. At this price point, it's worth a punt, but definitely test it on your skin first - don't say we didn't warn you.

Season and Occasion Fit

Colosseum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

While some find this wearable in the office, its prominent boozy and sweet fruity notes prevent it from being a solid professional choice. It's much better suited for casual outings or dates, and its warmth can even work for formal events, though it lacks true gravitas. Sport is out of the question for this amber-heavy scent profile.

Sweet Dates

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its prominent sweet, woody, and balsamic accords make it quite potent and perhaps a bit much for the office. It leans heavily towards date nights and casual autumn/winter wear where its warmth can truly shine.
