Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Humor 5
A divisive little number, Humor 5 splits the room. For some, it's a sweet, playful cherry dream; for others, a bit too syrupy and artificial, like a bargain bin hair cream. Definitely a try-before-you-buy job.
Statement
Our Verdict - Purple Heart V 5
This one is a real Marmite-moment, mate. Folks either reckon it's a bloody masterpiece of dark, inky fruitiness or pure, unadulterated medicinal ink with a side of BBQ. Definitely not a blind-buy, unless you like a bit of a gamble.

Season and Occasion Fit

Humor 5

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its sweet and fruity nature makes it a perfect fit for casual outings and relaxed dates where a playful scent is welcome. It might be a bit too sweet and prominent for a formal setting or the office, as the cherry note could be perceived as cloying by some.

Purple Heart V 5

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its distinctive, heavy character and moderate to strong sillage make it unsuitable for office wear, where it might offend. However, the unique and alluring darkness, with its boozy and smoky nuances, positions it perfectly for dates and formal evening events, particularly in cooler weather. Its bold nature means it's not a casual everyday scent for most.
