Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Dirty English EDT
A truly gorgeous, classic woody-leather scent, but don't bother with anything but vintage bottles. Newer formulations are watery disappointments, a shadow of their former glory, with atrocious performance that truly lets the side down.
Statement
Our Verdict - III EDP
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Some love its unique woody-mint-leather vibe, hailing it as sophisticated and smooth. Others find it harsh and synthetic, a chemical mess. It's a divisive beast, so sample before you commit.

Season and Occasion Fit

Dirty English

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

While the scent profile leans towards versatile, poor performance in current formulations means it's best for close encounters like dates or casual evening wear. It's too intimate for formal events and utterly unsuitable for sport.

III

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

While some find it versatile enough for daily wear, the pronounced woody and leather accords, coupled with its potential for good longevity and projection mentioned by some reviewers, suggest it's best reserved for evening or special occasions. Its unique character might be too distracting for a typical office environment.
