Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sceptre Amazonite EDP
Sceptre Amazonite is a beast - a highly divisive, potent oud and spice bomb. It's either a luxurious, dark masterpiece or a 'rotting corpse' on your skin. Definitely not a blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Bois d'Encens EDP
Bois d'Encens is a divisive frankincense bomb - genuinely profound for some, a short-lived disappointment for others. If you crave that dry, liturgical church vibe, this is your spiritual journey in a bottle, but its hit-or-miss performance is a real sticking point.

Season and Occasion Fit

Sceptre Amazonite

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With its insane projection and longevity, this beast-mode fragrance is far too potent for the office. It thrives in cooler weather, making it ideal for date nights where its sensual, mysterious aura can shine, or formal events where it commands attention, but its animalic nature makes it unsuitable for casual or sport wear.

Bois d'Encens

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Office Date

Despite its often intimate sillage, the sophisticated and serious nature of this woody-incense scent makes it better suited for formal events or date nights where its unique character can be appreciated. It's too profound for casual wear and the mixed performance means it might not always last a full workday.
