Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Idole d'Armani EDP
This discontinued gem is a true love-it-or-hate-it affair. For those who adore it, Idole d'Armani is a sophisticated, unique, and long-lasting scent that embodies confidence. For others, it's too spicy, too strong, and even a bit 'old-fashioned.'

Our Verdict - Amber Saffron EDP
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Many find it utterly repulsive with its animalic oud opening, while others rave about its unique-niche status and luxury feel, comparing it favourably to much pricier scents. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so sample before you commit.

Season and Occasion Fit

Idole d'Armani

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its sophisticated and occasionally strong sillage makes it less ideal for the office, where it might be overwhelming. However, many reviewers praise its suitability for special occasions, nights out, and formal events due to its rich, distinctive character and long-lasting nature.

Amber Saffron

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With its strong sillage, potent oud, and intensely spicy, warm character, this isn't one for the office. It's best suited for dates or formal events where its luxurious depth and bold presence can truly shine. Casual wear is possible, but be mindful of its polarizing nature.
