Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Under the Stars EDT
A dark, smoky leather-oud composition that stands out in the Replica line, Under the Stars is evocative, daring, and best reserved for nights when you want to project intrigue and depth.
Statement
Our Verdict - Duro Extrait
Duro is the scent of a man who knows what he wants and isn't afraid to get it. This bold, unapologetically masculine fragrance demands attention, blending powerful woods and leathery spice. Definitely not for the faint of heart, it's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, but for those who love it, it's a masterpiece.

Season and Occasion Fit

Under the Stars

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Best for cool nights and autumnal or winter wear thanks to the dense leather, oud, and resinous base. The spicy opening is slightly invigorating but the richness is too much for hot days.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

The smoky-leather and oud core is too assertive for sport or most offices, but feels alluring and enveloping for evening dates or formal occasions in the cold.

Duro

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Duro's potent sillage and long-lasting nature make it too assertive for office wear, but perfect for dates and evening formal events where its commanding presence can shine. While some might push it for casual wear, its intensity makes it less suitable for everyday relaxed settings.
