Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Habanita EDP

A legendary, polarising beast for those who dare, Habanita delivers a heavy hit of dark, powdery florals. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but those who love it, really love it. Just beware of reformulations - true fans seek out the older batches.

Our Verdict - Aire Loewe EDT

Aire Loewe is an old-school masterpiece, a crisp green aldehyde blast that divides opinions. Some find it a dated 'old lady' scent, while others declare it a sophisticated, uplifting classic. It either sings on your skin or turns sour, so testing is essential.

Season and Occasion Fit

Habanita

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Habanita's strong projection and longevity mean it's possibly too much for an office environment, but it's perfect for a statement on a date or a formal event. Its comforting yet dark character also makes it suitable for more relaxed evening wear.

Aire Loewe

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:

Casual

Also Works:

Office Formal

The fresh, clean, and green profile with moderate-to-good longevity makes this suitable for a variety of daytime settings, especially casual wear and the office, where its 'airy' quality is appreciated. While it possesses elegance for formal events, its distinct vintage character might not appeal to everyone for a date night.
