Which Should You Buy?
This one's a divisive dark horse. Some reckon it's a classy, unique leather-tea blend, a more serious take on the original Solo. Others find it an absolute scrubber, akin to 'toilet spray' or a 'dusty gymnasium'. Try before you buy, unless you're a gambling man.
Memoir Man is a deeply divisive blend of gothic green and smoky leather, with its once-legendary performance now a mere memory. Expect a unique, artistic scent that's either a mysterious masterpiece or a watery disappointment, depending on the batch and your luck.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
With its moderate performance and elegant leather-tea profile, this scent is ideal for office and formal wear, where refinement is key. It's also well-suited for dates due to its sensual character, but its richer accords make it less versatile for casual daytime or sport.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its dark, smoky, and leathery profile leans into more intimate or formal settings. While not overpowering in newer batches, its unique and potent character makes it less suited for a typical office or sporty environment. It excels in cooler weather, making it ideal for evening dates or sophisticated gatherings.
