Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The Last Day of Summer EDP
A meditative, high-quality woody-spicy scent that captures autumn's golden hour-subtle, elegant, and contemplative, perfect for those who savor the quiet transition of seasons.
Statement
Our Verdict - B*Men EDP
A truly unique Mugler creation, B*Men is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a spicy, woody, licorice bomb that leaves no one indifferent. It's divisive, but for those who get it, it's a discontinued masterpiece that collectors are desperate to hunt down.

Season and Occasion Fit

The Last Day of Summer

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Winter

This scent's dense woods, earthy vetiver, and spicy nutmeg evoke the crispness and melancholy of autumn, making it ideal for fall and early winter. It's less suited for heat, as its warmth and depth can feel heavy in summer but comforting in cold seasons.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Office Casual Formal

The moderate projection and elegant woody-spicy character fit best for casual, creative, or slightly formal settings, while its subtlety and sophistication make it appropriate for dates and office wear. Its contemplative mood is less fitting for sporty or highly active occasions.

B*Men

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong personality and the polarizing licorice note in the opening, B*Men isn't ideal for a restrained office environment, though some find it versatile. It shines on dates and formal occasions, particularly in cooler weather, where its warm, unique character can make a statement. Casual wear is possible, especially in less structured settings, but it's certainly not a gym scent.
