Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Warek EDP
Warek is a polarising, beast mode oud-leather scent. You'll either love its dark, animalic depth and massive projection, or you'll find it utterly unwearable. Definitely not for the faint of heart, this one demands attention.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Noir Kogane EDP
Divisive, powerful, and unapologetically masculine, Noir Kogane isn't for the faint of heart. Expect a beastly leather that polarises opinion, but those in its thrall consider it a masterpiece of dark luxury.

Season and Occasion Fit

Warek

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its 'beastly' projection and intensity, Warek is far too overpowering for an office environment. Its deep, rich character makes it suitable for evenings out and formal events, particularly in cooler weather, but it's generally too imposing for casual wear or sport.

Noir Kogane

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

This is a strong, projecting fragrance, making it a poor choice for the office. Its dark, luxurious leather and tobacco profile, coupled with its intensity, make it ideal for date nights and formal events, or any occasion where you want to make a powerful statement. It's too heavy for casual wear or sport.
