Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sultan The Conqueror Eau de Parfum
This one's a divisive beast, a murky blend that some absolutely adore for its sweet, woody oud, while others find it a messy, unrefined approximation of other popular heavyweights. Expect strong takes, both good and bad.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Raffaello Extrait
This is a seriously polarising scent - some find it an absolute masterpiece, others say it’ll drive you to jump off a bridge. It’s got a strong presence, so sampling is essential unless you fancy a dramatic gamble.

Season and Occasion Fit

Sultan The Conqueror Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong projection and above average longevity with prominent amber, woody, and smoky accords, this scent is far too dominant for an office setting. It's best suited for evening wear and special occasions like dates or formal events where its character can truly shine.

Raffaello Extrait

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn

A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong projection and exceptional longevity, Raffaello is too assertive for office wear. Its complex, sophisticated nature and the general impression of 'regal' or 'well-dressed' align it better with formal events and confident date nights, while being a bit much for casual sports.
