Which Should You Buy?
This one is a real love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a smoky, boozy, black cherry dream; for others, a cloying, synthetic headache in a bottle. Blind buy at your peril - this dark beauty demands a test sniff.
This 'fruitchouli' is a divisive one. Some find it a sensual, budget-friendly alternative to pricier gourmands, while others are put off by its perceived harshness or 'old-lady' vibe. It's not a crowd-pleaser, but a strong patchouli hit for those who love it.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its potent projection and unique, dark sweetness make In Black less suitable for polite office wear, but perfect for dates where you want to make a statement. The rich, almost boozy, and often polarising character isn't ideal for casual daytime use or sport, but could work for formal evening events.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its bold, sometimes strong, projection and sensual character make it less suitable for office or sport. The sweet and inviting notes, coupled with a 'sexy' vibe from reviews, make it ideal for date nights or casual evenings out.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Sweet, Powdery, Vanilla accords and Lily, Patchouli notes
