Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Nero Assoluto Eau de Parfum
This is a seriously polarising scent for some, with a love-it-or-hate-it vibe, but for others, it's an underrated, luxurious gem that smells way more expensive than it is. Expect compliments.

Our Verdict - Captain America Eau de Toilette
Marvel's Captain America is a thoroughly unremarkable Cool Water or Aspen clone, widely perceived as cheap and synthetic. If you need a ten-quid novelty for a Marvel-obsessed kid, it'll do. Otherwise, give it a wide berth.

Season and Occasion Fit

Nero Assoluto 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 moderate sillage and strong, dark accords make it perfect for date nights and formal events, creating a 'femme fatale' aura. While some find it too intense for daily wear, others appreciate its elegance for office settings with a lighter hand, or for cozy casual evenings.

Captain America Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring Autumn

A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh and clean profile makes it suitable for casual wear or as a post-gym spritz. Its lack of sillage and generic character means it won't offend in an office setting, but it's far too basic for a date or formal event.
