Which Should You Buy?
Midnight in Paris is a legendary, much-missed gem that still commands fanatical devotion years after its discontinuation. It's a nuanced, comforting amber-leather dream, though some find it a bit powdery or leaning feminine. A few even reckon it's nothing special, but they're very much in the minority. If you can find it for a decent price, snap it up.
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.
