Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper spicy enigma, constantly compared to Bvlgari Man in Black but confidently carving its own path. Expect a boozy, warm hug that's less uptight and surprisingly long-lasting, though perhaps a tad overhyped by some.
A clean, subtle scent for daily casual and office wear. Ideal for those who prefer understated fragrances.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its strong projection and longevity make it less suitable for the office, and the warmth is all wrong for sporty activities. This is a scent for intimate dates and evening wear, with its sophisticated spicy-woody character lending itself well to formal occasions.
Seasons
The fresh and soapy accords are suitable for spring when cleanliness and lightness are desirable; they also work moderately well in summer and early fall.
Occasions
Its fresh and clean profile makes it ideal for office settings and casual outings. The low projection and moderate intensity reduce risk of overapplication.
