Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Imperium
This is a fresh, bright, and clean citrus aromatic that's a crowd-pleaser, delivering great value for money. Performance is an issue for many, so be prepared to respray, but the scent itself is widely adored.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Pride
Pride delivers a bold, animalic statement that isn't for the faint of heart. It's divisive, intriguing some and overwhelming others, making it a true love-it-or-hate-it scent for those who dare to wear it.

Season and Occasion Fit

Imperium

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile makes it perfect for casual and office wear, especially given its lighter projection. While versatile for dates, its limited longevity might require reapplication for longer events, and it's a bit too sporty for truly formal settings.

Pride

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its dominant leather and animalic accords, along with its strong presence, make it less suitable for office wear. However, its bold and sensual nature makes it a compelling choice for nights out, dates, and more formal evening events.
