Which Should You Buy?
Prepare for division: Fortis is a moody, woody beast that delivers a dark, sensual punch. While some find it a softer, more wearable ode to Black Afgano, others dismiss it as a mere imitation. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but undeniably captivating.
This one's a wildcard - some call it pure sex, others a headache. Expect a potent, wine-soaked rose and incense blend that might just leave some feeling a bit boozy. Definitely not for the shy or light-handed.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its strong, woody, and spicy character, Fortis is best reserved for evening dates and formal events where its richness can shine. Its intensity makes it less suitable for casual daytime wear or office environments, and definitely not for sport.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
The strong, heady nature of the rose and incense notes, combined with its intensity, makes it ill-suited for the office or casual, close-quarters situations. It shines on a date or formal evening where its bold character can truly be appreciated.
