Which Should You Buy?
This isn't your mum's Flower. Kenzo Oriental is a divisive beast: a love-it-or-hate-it incense bomb that captivates with its meditative depth, or repels with a sharp, 'unnatural' opening. If you appreciate a confident, smoky oriental, you'll mourn its discontinuation.
This one is a proper head-turner, but whether for good or bad is down to your skin chemistry and tolerance for 'burnt rubber'. It's a divisive masterpiece, so don't even think about blind buying. Test it, and if it works for you, prepare for compliments.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its prominent smoky and amber accords and moderate sillage make it too heavy for most offices. However, its sophisticated and warm character, combined with a sensual vanilla dry-down, is perfect for dates and evening events, creating an inviting yet intriguing aura.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and longevity, this isn't an office-friendly scent, but its sophisticated amber and musk make it perfect for date nights and formal events. It's too opulent for casual wear, and definitely unsuitable for sport.
