Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Playing With The Devil EDP
This one's a proper divisive scent. Some reckon it's a juicy, fruity revelation with a spicy kick, while others are convinced it smells like 'pink medicine' or even body odour. Definitely one to sample first before you commit, as your skin chemistry will make or break it.
Statement
Our Verdict - Voux Patisserie EDP
Voux Patisserie is a divisive beast. For some, it's a buttery, almondy dream; for others, a screechy, medicinal mess. You'll either love its creamy, spicy warmth or be repulsed by what some call a plasticky, synthetic accord. Patience is key - many say it needs serious maceration to reach its potential. Blind buy at your peril.

Season and Occasion Fit

Playing With The Devil

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its strong fruity and spicy accords, often noted for their excellent sillage and longevity by some, make it a bit much for the office. It's much better suited for casual outings or dates where its unique character can truly shine without overpowering. It's too complex and rich for sport.

Voux Patisserie

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its strong, sweet, and warm spicy profile makes it too intense for the office. However, its rich and inviting nature is perfectly suited for dates, especially in cooler weather, where its substantial performance ensures it lingers beautifully. It's a bit much for casual daytime wear unless you're truly dedicated to making a statement, and completely out of place for sport.
