Which Should You Buy?
A truly gorgeous, dark, sweet, and smooth legend from Issey Miyake's Nuit line. Polaris is sadly discontinued, so if you happen upon a bottle don't hesitate to snatch it up - it's a masterpiece.
Compiled from the house's own product notes: a sharp bergamot-grapefruit-black pepper opening settles into a warm agarwood-amber heart and base - a citrus-woody composition that's straightforward but wearable for daily use.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its potent projection and dark, intense character make it unsuitable for office wear, but perfect for evening dates and formal events. The rich accords and strong performance are best suited for cooler weather social occasions.
Seasons
The bright citrus-pepper opening and moderate amber-woody body suit warmer months best, where a lighter EDT reads as fresh rather than thin.
Occasions
As a light, citrus-forward EDT with moderate projection, this suits office and casual daytime wear best rather than evening or formal occasions.
