Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cuir Infrarouge
This raspberry leather-oud hybrid is a properly divisive beast. Some find it a sophisticated, juicy leather dream, others a harsh, synthetic nightmare. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but those who love it are absolutely obsessed.

Our Verdict - Portfolio Cupid's Rose
A truly gorgeous, jammy rose that smells way more expensive than it is - though some found it overpriced upon launch. This one's a crowd-pleaser for anyone after a rich, sweet, and masculine rose, especially when the weather cools.

Season and Occasion Fit

Cuir Infrarouge

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its 'beast mode' performance and strong, distinctive scent profile, this is definitely not an office-friendly fragrance. It shines brightest on dates or formal evening events where its bold and sensual character can truly stand out, though some find it a bit much even for a casual night out.
