Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme Or Encens Eau de Parfum

A masterful smoky-incense and leather fragrance with a golden, mysterious warmth. Or Encens is for those who want gravitas and sophistication, not mass appeal. It commands attention with its complexity and depth.

Statement

Our Verdict - Encens Mythique D'Orient Eau de Parfum

Encens Mythique D'Orient is a true 'love it or hate it' scent, notorious for its controversial ambergris and aldehydes. Some find it a masterpiece of airy, luxurious incense and rose, others can't stand the funky, 'burning electronics' vibe. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but a must-try for the adventurous.

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

The dense incense, amber, leather, and smoky woods make this an ideal choice for fall and winter, radiating warmth and richness in cool weather. Its power and spice may be too much for summer but work for cool spring evenings.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

This bold, resinous scent is best for formal, evening, or date settings where its smoky richness shines. It's too commanding and dense for office or sports but can work for casual nights out.

Encens Mythique D'Orient Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Given its intense performance and divisive character, this scent is ill-suited for the office or casual daywear. It truly shines for formal events and dates, where its bold and mysterious aura can make a statement without overwhelming. Its longevity and sillage demand occasions where it can be appreciated.
