Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Full Incense Eau de Parfum

This one is exactly what it says on the tin: full-on, unadulterated incense. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans praising its authentic churchy vibes and detractors finding it too linear or unwearable. Don't blind buy unless you live for frankincense.

Our Verdict - Ashes Extrait

This one's a proper Gothic romance in a bottle, all dark woods and ancient incense. It's a statement scent, bold and unapologetic, but don't expect it to charm everyone - it's definitely a 'love it or leave it' affair that commands attention.

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal
