Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Teriaq Intense Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper Quentin Bisch creation - a powerhouse that's dividing opinions but delivering beast-mode performance for those who dare. It's a sweet, boozy plum bomb that smells far pricier than it is, but definitely not a blind buy.

Our Verdict - Starlight Eau de Parfum
Xerjoff Starlight is a luxurious cardamom bomb - polarising for some, but a masterpiece for spicy fragrance lovers. It's an intoxicating journey from fresh zest to warm, comforting embrace, though some find it a bit too festive or a touch too linear for the price point. Definitely try before you buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Teriaq Intense Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

This perfume is an absolute projection monster with intense longevity, making it unsuitable for office wear. Its rich, boozy and warm spicy accords are perfect for sophisticated date nights and cooler weather formal events, but it’s too heavy for casual daytime wear or sport.

Starlight Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

While its warmth and spice make it a bit much for the office, Starlight truly shines for dates, formal events, and cosy casual wear, especially in cooler weather, as many reviewers noted. Its strong sillage and longevity mean it makes an impact without being overbearing for special occasions.
