Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Richwood EDP
A benchmark sandalwood chypre: Richwood is powerfully opulent, yet seamlessly blended. Its deep woods, plush rose, and subtle fruit radiate timeless luxury and elegant confidence.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Madame EDP
Compiled from the house's own product notes: orange, bergamot and grapefruit open into a lychee-rose-jasmine heart, resting on Indonesian patchouli, Haitian vetiver, Bourbon vanilla and white musk - a sultry, sophisticated women's oriental-floral.

Season and Occasion Fit

Richwood

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Richwood's opulent sandalwood, patchouli and vanilla make it best suited for cooler temperatures, excelling in fall and winter when its richness and warmth blossom. The touch of citrus and rose allows some versatility in spring, but it is too heavy for most summer wear.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its bold projection and luxurious profile make Richwood ideal for formal events and special dates, while its richness might overwhelm in casual or office settings. Far too opulent for sporty occasions.

Madame

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Autumn

The vetiver-patchouli-vanilla base gives real warmth suited to cooler months, where the fragrance's sultry character is most appropriate.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Formal

A sophisticated, well-projecting oriental-floral best suited to evening dates and formal occasions.
