Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bois d'Iris Eau de Parfum

Bois d'Iris is a divisive, beautiful skin scent - either a love-at-first-sniff, quietly luxurious iris, or a frustratingly fleeting and hard-to-detect whisper. Don't expect beast-mode; this is for those who embrace subtlety.

Our Verdict - Nosferatu Eau de Parfum

This one's gloriously gothic and deeply divisive. You'll either adore its damp, floral graveyard aesthetic or recoil from what some call 'cucumber water' or 'musty basement'. Don't expect a crowd-pleaser, but if you love uncanny beauty, it's a masterpiece.

Best For:

Date

Also Works:

Casual

Its intimate projection means it won't offend in an office, but the unique, melancholic character is better suited to cooler weather and personal enjoyment. While some reviews suggest wearing it to bed, its evocative nature makes it interesting for a date or casual outing, though not universally appealing. The subtle sillage and specific scent profile preclude it from formal or sport settings.
