Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vert des Bois EDP
Vert des Bois is a divisive beast: some hail it as a unique masterpiece, an ethereal green dream; others find it a challenging, even medicinal, misstep. It's an acquired taste, but for those who get it, it's a bold confidence booster.

Our Verdict - Romanza EDP
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Masque Milano's Romanza is for those who crave the unconventional. Unashamedly unique, it's a divisive floral with an addictive, challenging edge. If you don't mind a bit of 'filthy floral' mystery, dive in.

Season and Occasion Fit

Vert des Bois

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Given its strong opening and significant projection, Vert des Bois is probably a bit much for the office. It's excellent for dates or evening casual wear, as its unique character sparks conversation. While some find it suitable for formal settings, its quirky nature might not suit every occasion, and it's definitely not for sport.

Romanza

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent projection and unique, sometimes challenging, floral animalic character make it unsuitable for the office or casual settings. However, its bold, sophisticated profile shines on dates or formal events where you want to make a memorable, if potentially polarising, statement.
