Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Opus 1870 Eau de Toilette
A quintessential British spicy-woody, Opus 1870 is refined yet quietly charismatic, balancing peppery freshness with smoky woods and a soft rose. Reserved, contemplative, and always dignified.

Our Verdict - Incenso Notturno Extrait
This isn't for the faint of heart. Incenso Notturno is a divisive, full-throttle smoke bomb that’s either a masterpiece of dark opulence or an "unwearable" peppery mess. Forget subtle incense; this is a gothic cathedral burning down, for better or worse.
