Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cuir Noir
This one's a proper grown-up leather, sophisticated and a bit moody. It's not for the faint of heart - expect a confident swagger, not a shy whisper. A genuine stunner if you fancy turning heads.

Our Verdict - Jour 11
This one's a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a delightful, softer take on a familiar leather, while others are left wanting more in terms of originality and longevity. It's a decent enough scent for those who enjoy the style, but don't expect it to blow your socks off.

Its bold leather and woody accords, combined with a noticeable sillage, make it perhaps too strong for a conservative office environment. However, this same intensity lends itself perfectly to date nights and formal events where making an impression is key.

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

While the leather accord suggests a certain formality, its moderate projection and the softer violet and fruity notes make it versatile enough for daily wear. Its lack of extraordinary longevity means it won't overwhelm an office, but it's best suited for dates due to its sensual character.
