Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mandragore Pourpre
This "witchy" scent is a unique, naturalistic herbal blend. Lovers praise its mysterious, elegant depth and surprising freshness, though some find it a bit too subtle with weak longevity. It's a potion for those who like their fragrance ethereal yet grounded.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Jasmin Angélique
A truly polarising scent, Jasmin Angélique is a 'love it or hate it' affair. Some revel in its edgy, smoky jasmine, while others recoil from what they perceive as an ashtray accord. Definitely not for a blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Mandragore Pourpre

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate sillage and 'close to the skin' nature make it suitable for casual wear and dates, but it might be too subtle for formal events. The fresh, herbal character prevents it from being overpowering, making it an acceptable office choice, albeit not a standout.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate sillage and longevity make it versatile, but the opinion-splitting smoky amber note might not suit all workplaces or formal events. However, its unique character makes it a strong choice for dates and casual outings where a bold statement is welcome.
