Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Drunk Lovers Eau de Parfum

A boozy, berry-forward scent that swings between 'absolute masterpiece' and 'generic designer dupe'. You'll either adore its warm, sensual embrace or dismiss it for smelling like every other sweet, spicy scent out there. Blind buy at your peril.

Our Verdict - Presence Eau de Parfum

Montblanc Presence is a surprisingly divisive frag that's either a classic, unique 'barbershop' gem or an outdated, weak 'dad scent'. Most agree it's a clean, subtly spicy wear that won't offend, but don't expect beast mode performance.

Season and Occasion Fit

Drunk Lovers Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Its strong boozy and warm spicy accords, coupled with community remarks about it being 'sexy' and for 'date night', make it unsuitable for office or sport. The luxurious yet comforting feel, however, lends itself well to formal events and intimate dates.

Presence Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

Also Works:

Summer Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Date

Its moderate sillage and 'clean shaving cream' vibe make it ideal for the office or casual day wear. While not overly formal, its subtle sophistication suits some date settings, but weak longevity makes it less suitable for long events or active sports.
