Erotic

Which Should You Buy?
A truly gorgeous, comforting amber that's not afraid of a bit of spice and a fresh aromatic kick. It's divisive only because some say its performance is poor, but the scent itself is a hug in a bottle.
Divisive, potent, and unabashedly raunchy, Franck Boclet's Erotic lives up to its name. This isn't for the faint of heart, or those who prefer their fragrances subtle; it's a 'love at first sniff' for some, and a 'burnt rubber no-go' for others. Approach with caution, but if it sings to you, it really *sings*.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
This extrait's beastmode projection and opulent amber-animalic profile make it far too dominating for an office setting. It shines brightest on a date or in formal evening wear, where its sultry, commanding presence can truly make an impression, but it is too heavy for casual daytime wear.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Amber, Woody, Vanilla accords and Lavender, Sandalwood notes
