Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rosa Sublime Eau de Parfum

A regal, modern rose with a spicy, resinous backbone and a musky, opulent trail. Not for the faint of heart-this is statement florality for those who want intensity and depth in their signature scent.

Our Verdict - Series 3 Incense: Avignon Eau de Parfum

This is *the* reference for a pure Catholic church incense, bar none. It's divisive; some find it a meditative masterpiece, others a dusty, unwearable relic. Performance complaints are consistent, so be prepared to overspray or reapply.

Season and Occasion Fit

Rosa Sublime Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

Also Works:

Winter

The opulent Damask rose, saffron, and dense resins make Rosa Sublime most suited to cooler weather where its warmth and richness blossom beautifully. Spring and fall highlight its spicy-floral interplay, while winter use is possible for those seeking enveloping depth.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Its sophisticated, enveloping sillage and luxurious rose profile shine on formal occasions and romantic dates, but may feel too assertive for sporty, highly casual, or office settings unless applied lightly.

Series 3 Incense: Avignon Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Formal

Also Works:

Date Casual

Its distinctive, churchy incense profile makes it a bold, unique choice, better suited for cooler weather and intimate or formal settings. Many reviews describe it as a 'personal' or 'meditative' scent, worn for oneself or for specific moods rather than daily public wear, especially given its variable projection.
