Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vert d'Encens Eau de Parfum
A truly unique green-amber scent that divides opinion but clearly captivates. It's either an addictive, mysterious forest floor dream or a cloying, messy confusion. Try before you buy, if you can even find it given its cult-favourite discontinued status.

Our Verdict - The Trail Eau de Parfum
This one is a real Marmite scent - you’ll either adore its deep, smoky mystery or find it smells like barbecue sauce. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but if you love dark, woody aromas, this could be your next signature.

Season and Occasion Fit

Vert d'Encens Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, combined with its distinct, somewhat 'gothic' woody-amber character, make it less suitable for office wear. However, its complex blend is highly appropriate for evening dates and formal events, though some find it versatile enough for sophisticated casual wear.

The Trail Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its smoky, woody intensity is too much for an office setting, but it shines on a date or in casual, cooler weather. While unique and sophisticated, it's a bit too niche for most formal events and certainly not for sport.
