Which Should You Buy?
Prepare yourself for a divisive olfactive journey. This ain't your grandma's patchouli; it's a bold, unapologetic smoke bomb that some will adore, others will find utterly repugnant. If you want BBQ on your skin, you've found its spiritual home.
Prepare for a proper love-it-or-hate-it scent. Chi is a beastly, divisive oriental oud gourmand that polarises with its earthy, animalic undertones. Don't even *think* about a blind buy unless you like a bit of funk with your sweets.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
With beast-mode projection and longevity, this is far too intense for the office. Its unique, smoky-leather profile makes it a standout for colder weather casual outings or intimate dates, though it might be too much for formal events.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Given its beast mode performance and intensely polarising scent profile, Chi is far too potent and potentially off-putting for an office or casual daytime setting. It shines brightest on a date or for cooler-weather formal events, where its luxurious warmth and undeniable projection can make a statement.
