Which Should You Buy?
Don't let the name fool you - this ain't no deep, boozy rum. It's a surprisingly clean, fresh take on plum and leather with a creamy, almost shampoo-like softness. Some find it sexy and addictive, others call it a 'basic ass plum' or 'laundry detergent'. A divisive scent where a blind buy is definitely not advised.
Prepare for a proper love-it-or-hate-it experience with Chicago High. It's a divisive beast of champagne, pineapples, honeyed tobacco, and animalic leather, delivering a boozy, smoky punch that some find utterly captivating and others utterly repulsive.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and clean character make it versatile for casual wear and date nights, where its subtle sensuality can shine. However, its fruitiness and perceived lack of 'seriousness' by some, combined with variable longevity, make it less suited for formal settings or vigorous sport.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
This fragrance is far too loud and distinctive for the office, best saved for evenings out. Its strong projection and unique, boozy-tobacco profile make it perfect for date nights and formal events where you want to leave a lasting impression.
