Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - New York Eau de Parfum

A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Le Labo Santal 33 (2011) - violet, sandalwood and leather translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Our Verdict - Island Lush Eau de Parfum

Divisive and aptly named, yet not for the reasons you'd expect. Forget tropical cocktails; this is a dense, spicy, leathery beast some call a masterpiece, others burnt toast. Try before you buy, it's certainly a conversation starter.

Island Lush Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Given its strong woody, spicy, and leathery accords, and mentions of impressive longevity and projection, this scent is better suited to date nights or formal events. It may be too bold for an office setting and definitely not for sport.
