Which Should You Buy?
This extrait is a beast-mode saffron bomb with a divisive metallic edge. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that screams luxury and confident intensity, but definitely not for the faint of heart or those prone to headaches.
This isn't for the faint of heart. Orionis is a beastly amber, animalic and intense, that polarises opinion. Some find it a masterpiece of opulent depth, others a challenging, even 'skanky', experience. Definitely not a blind buy.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
This extrait is incredibly potent with beast-mode projection and longevity, making it unsuitable for an office environment where it could easily overwhelm. However, its luxurious, sophisticated character makes it a superb choice for dates and formal events. You might get away with it casually with minimal sprays, but it's too much for active wear.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
With its beastly performance and strong, animalic amber profile, Orionis is far too overwhelming for office or casual wear. It demands a special setting like a date or a formal evening event, where its commanding presence can be appreciated without being intrusive.
