Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Russian Leather Eau de Parfum

Don't be fooled by the name - this ain't your grandad's 'Russian Leather'. It's a 'frozen fougère' that captures a cold, piney forest wonderfully, but its subtle leather accord and barbershop vibe means it's not punching above its weight in the leather category. A divisive one, with performance niggles.

Statement

Our Verdict - Blasted Heath Eau de Parfum

This one's a proper divisive marine scent, perfect for those who want to smell like a windswept British coast, seaweed and all. You'll either love its bracing, realistic take on the sea, or find it utterly repulsive. Not for the faint of heart or the calone-averse.

Season and Occasion Fit

Russian Leather Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Date

Its generally subdued performance and fresh, clean barbershop feel make it suitable for office and casual wear without being overpowering. The sophisticated, cool aura also works for informal dates, but it may lack the gravitas required for formal events and is too subtle for active sport.

Blasted Heath Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:

Casual Sport

Also Works:

Date

Its potent marine and woody accords, noted by some as 'insanely long lasting', make it too assertive for a polite office. However, its unique 'cold beach' vibe and strong projection mean it shines in casual settings or even on a date, for those who appreciate its distinct edge.
