Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Embrace Eau de Parfum
Embrace is a unique, under-the-radar gem from Lattafa, a proper dirty green fougère with a masculine edge that's genuinely well-blended and far from a clone. If you enjoy spicy ginger, mossy earthiness, and a touch of something unexpected, this is a solid choice.

Our Verdict - Marquis de Sade Eau de Parfum
This is a seriously polarising beast. Forget your usual crowd-pleasers; 1740 is a dark, leathery, boozy powerhouse that demands attention. You'll either adore its scandalous charm or recoil from its perceived mustiness. Definitely not for the shrinking violets.

Season and Occasion Fit

Embrace Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office Date

Its moderate projection and fresh, yet earthy profile make it versatile for casual wear and even gym use as some reviews suggest. While not overly formal, its unique character could suit a date night, but it might be a bit too distinctive for everyday office wear due to its strong ginger opening.

Marquis de Sade Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Formal

With its beast mode performance and intensely dark, leathery accords, 1740 is too much for the office. It truly shines on a date or in formal evening settings, projecting a daring confidence that's less suited to casual daytime wear or anything active.
