Which Should You Buy?
This Is Him is a genuinely divisive scent, sparking strong opinions with its bold take on incense and vanilla. It's either a masterful blend of edgy sophistication or a cloying, unwearable mess. Love it or hate it, you definitely won't be bored.
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Tom Ford's Oud Wood (2007) - the Private Blend rosewood-oud-sandalwood composition that introduced gateway oud to Western luxury perfumery, here translated into a rosewood-cardamom opening over oud-sandalwood and a tonka-vanilla close. Honest dupe-fidelity for evening and formal wear at a fraction of the niche price.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its bold and projecting nature, combined with smoky and vanilla accords, makes it less suited for a conservative office environment. However, many reviews highlight its 'sexy' and 'mysterious' qualities for dates, and its versatile cool-weather appeal for casual or even semi-formal nights out, despite some performance complaints.
Seasons
Oud-sandalwood-tonka backbone carries strongest in autumn and winter; spring and summer work in cooler settings. Not a hot-weather signature.
Occasions
Polished oud-wood reads sophisticated for evening, date and formal; office works for those who like statement signatures. Too warm-heavy for sport.
