Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pi Eau de Toilette
A benchmark in sweet masculine gourmands, Pi wraps you in warm vanilla, almond, and benzoin with a comforting, nostalgic trail. Best for cold weather and intimate moments, it's a timeless classic for those who crave edible warmth.

Our Verdict - Jicky Eau de Parfum
Jicky is a bona fide classic, but it's not for everyone. Expect a challenging opening that polarises opinion, from 'mothballs and bad breath' to 'uniquely intriguing'. Give it time to settle, and you'll be rewarded with a complex, sophisticated, clean drydown that hints at its legendary status.

Season and Occasion Fit

Pi Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Pi's heavy vanilla, benzoin, and tonka bean base, along with nutty and warm spicy facets, make it ideal for fall and winter. Its sweetness and richness can be cloying in high heat, but its soft citrus and herbal top provide some spring versatility.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

The sweet, warm, and sensual profile is perfect for date nights and cozy casual settings. Moderate projection and warmth also suit formal wear, but the gourmand heaviness is less suited to sporty or very professional office contexts.

Jicky Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its sophisticated aromatic and woody accords lean towards more formal and intimate settings, but it can be worn in the office if applied lightly. The initial challenging opening means it's not an instant crowd-pleaser for casual wear or sport.
