Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Les Absolus d'Orient Bois Mystérieux EDP
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair, polarizing opinions like few others. It's a bold, beast-mode oriental that demands confidence and can either be your signature masterpiece or just a bit too much 'body odour' for some. Definitely needs a test run before committing.

Our Verdict - Emir Cosmopolitan New York EDP
If you're after a budget-friendly dupe, this tries its best. It falls short on performance and scent profile compared to the original, so expect something similar but ultimately a bit lacklustre.

Les Absolus d'Orient Bois Mystérieux

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, coupled with its intense woody, leather, and spicy accords, make it unsuitable for office wear. However, these same characteristics make it a standout for evening events, dates, and formal occasions where making a statement is desired.
