Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Van Py Rhum Eau de Parfum

This is a bold, divisive, love-it-or-hate-it vanilla bomb that swings between boozy delight and cloying overdose. If you're after a dark, sweet, and unique statement scent, this might just be your intoxicating potion, provided you can handle the intensity.

Our Verdict - Cacao Porcelana Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper dark horse - a sophisticated cacao that sidesteps the usual sickly sweetness, but expect some truly wild takes on the opening. You'll either adore its unique, dry depth or think someone's been rummaging through a skip.

Given its intense sweetness and boozy profile, this is best reserved for evening and intimate occasions. Many reviews highlight its strong projection and potency, making it too overwhelming for casual or office wear, but perfect for a date night where you want to make a lasting impression.

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Its distinctive and sometimes divisive opening, combined with moderate sillage (when it performs), makes it a bit much for the office. However, its sophisticated and warming profile, especially in the dry down, is ideal for dates and cooler-weather formal events.
