Which Should You Buy?
This Y2K classic is divisive by design. Ultraviolet is not for the faint of heart, but those who 'get it' swear by its unique violet-pepper-apricot blend for a truly unforgettable scent. Just watch out for that dodgy atomizer.
This one is a proper divisive beast. Rose Magnitude aims for a dramatic, woody rose, but many find it leans too far into unpleasant territory like leather, floor cleaner, or even barnyard oud. Definitely not a safe blind buy, as it morphs wildly depending on your skin chemistry.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its potent projection and longevity make it less suitable for office wear, but perfect for making a statement on a night out or during casual events. While some find it too strong for formal settings, its unique character works well for those wanting to stand out.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and complex, often heavy profile, this isn't one for the office. It truly shines on a date or for formal events where its unique character can make a statement, performing well enough to last throughout the evening.
