Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Mysterious Amber is a bold, long-lasting incense and amber bomb. Some find it a magnificent Tom Ford clone, others can't scrub it off fast enough. Definitely not for the faint of heart, or nose.
This one's a bit of a head-scratcher. Some find its amber-cardamom punch mesmerisingly potent and long-lasting, while others are swiftly put off by its sweetness or find its performance surprisingly lacking. Try before you buy, it's definitely divisive.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and spring.
Occasions
Its potent amber and spicy notes make it a bit much for the office, but it's well-suited for evenings and cooler weather. Reviews suggest a strong, heavy scent that's ideal for making an impression on a date or at a formal event.
