Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Chypre-Siam
Chypre-Siam is a glorious, unapologetically vintage chypre that splits opinion right down the middle. For some, it's a classy, authentic nod to the past; for others, it's a dated, overwhelming "grandmother's scent". If you crave oakmoss and proper perfumery, this is your jam.

Our Verdict - Libertine Neroli
Francesca Bianchi's Libertine Neroli is a wildly divisive beast. Some find it a masterful, deep neroli chypre with animalic swagger, others recoil at its old-school intensity, calling it dated and heavy-handed. You'll either love its vintage charm or find it thoroughly unwearable.

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

Occasions

Best For:

Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong projection and old-school, complex profile, Chypre-Siam isn't ideal for a typical office environment. Its elegant character and impressive longevity make it perfect for formal events or sophisticated date nights where you want to make a statement.

Libertine Neroli

Seasons

Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong sillage, long-lasting nature, and prominent animalic chypre base, it's a bit much for an office setting. It truly shines for date nights or elegant formal events, where its unique, sensual character can be appreciated. While some wear it casually, its complexity and depth lean it away from a light everyday scent.
