Lunatique is a truly divisive scent; a cold, metallic leather with an otherworldly vibe that you'll either adore for its uniqueness or absolutely despise for its harsh, industrial edge. Not for the faint-hearted.
This one is a properly divisive beast. Alexandria Orientale promises a rich, complex oud but delivers a challenging opening that will either turn heads or turn stomachs. Not for the faint-hearted, it’s a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with little room for indifference.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its potent, unique profile and strong sillage mean Lunatique is too assertive for the office. It thrives in formal and date settings where its mysterious, bold character can make a lasting impression. Less suitable for casual wear due to its intensity and distinctiveness.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Given its enormous longevity and projection, this is entirely unsuitable for an office environment, where it would overwhelm. It shines brightest at formal events or on a sophisticated date night, where its strength and unique character can be appreciated.
