Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 06 Incense Rose EDP
This is a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect a fizzy, vibrant opening that gives way to a truly unique incense-rose blend. It's potent, artistic, and certainly not for the faint of heart, but those who 'get' it are utterly enchanted.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Étui Noir EDP
A buttery, smoky leather and iris delight that's either a classy powerhouse or a screechy violet nightmare, depending on who you ask. It’s a definite try-before-you-buy, but for those it clicks with, it's a masterpiece.

Season and Occasion Fit

06 Incense Rose

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its potent projection and longevity make it less suitable for the office, potentially overwhelming colleagues. However, its unique and sensual profile makes it ideal for dates and evening wear, lending a mysterious aura. Casual wear is possible if applied sparingly, but it's too heavy for sport.

Étui Noir

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

While some find it strong and say "apply with caution," many describe it as elegant, smooth, and even "clean," making it surprisingly wearable. Its warm, leathery character suits cooler weather and more intimate or sophisticated settings, though some wear it confidently to the office.
