Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bound For Men EDP
This budget-friendly banger is a divisive beast. Expect a potent, sweet and leathery experience that needs a good "maturation" period to hit its stride. If you're patient, and ignore the bottle, you'll be chuffed.

Our Verdict - Armani Code Profumo EDP
This one's a divisive legend. Discontinued by Armani (to widespread outrage), Profumo is drenched in sweet, spicy, amber goodness that's pure seduction, though a few find it a bit much. If you can get your hands on it, you're in for a treat.

Season and Occasion Fit

Bound For Men

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its potent projection and long-lasting, sweet, leathery profile make it less suitable for office wear. However, these same qualities, particularly its 'alluring' and 'masculine' nature, are ideal for dates and evening events despite its low price point.

Armani Code Profumo

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Given its strong projection and sweet, dense accords, Profumo is best suited for colder weather evenings and intimate settings like dates. It's generally too intense for an office and completely out of place for sport, but can work for casual nights out.
