Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rosendo Mateu Nº 5 Floral, Amber, Sensual Musk

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.

Acquired

Our Verdict - Bana Banana

Divisive, unique, and fleeting - Bana Banana offers a whimsical opening that sadly doesn't stick around. Don't go in expecting a gourmand banana bonanza, but rather a powdery, sophisticated floral with a brief fruity cameo.

Rosendo Mateu Nº 5 Floral, Amber, Sensual Musk

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

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.

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

Also Works:

Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:

Casual

Also Works:

Office Date

Its moderate projection and short-lived fruity burst make it suitable for casual wear or an office setting where it won't overwhelm. Due to its unique and somewhat 'odd' character, it's less suited for formal events.
