Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Au Masculin Eau de Parfum
This early noughties gem is a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect potent licorice and anise, backed by sweet vanilla and boozy warmth. If you appreciate a unique, sweet-spicy signature, you're in for a treat, but it's definitely not for everyone.

Our Verdict - Le Premier Parfum
A truly divisive fantasy in a bottle; Le Premier is either an enchanting, nostalgic trip or a cloying, headache-inducing mess. This sweet, powdery, licorice-heavy perfume is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who love it, a magical signature scent is found.

Season and Occasion Fit

Au Masculin Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong, sweet, and unique profile makes it a standout choice for dates and cooler casual outings, where its sillage can truly shine. The sweetness and potential for strong projection limit its appropriateness for office or formal settings, and it's definitely not one for sport.

Le Premier Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its potent sweetness and strong sillage make it unsuitable for an office environment. However, its unique and romantic character, noted by many reviewers, makes it perfect for dates and casual outings, especially during colder months. It's a bit too whimsical for true formal events.
