Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Aurora
Aurora is a seriously divisive oud-rose that you'll either love or desperately want to scrub off. Some find it a jammy, complex masterpiece, others a synthetic, 'floor cleaner' bomb. Definitely not for everyone, best to try before you buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Giorgio Armani Ikat Rouge
A richly textured blend of saffron and oud gives a sense of luxury and refinement. The fragrance has a subtlety that suits both business and personal settings.

Season and Occasion Fit

Aurora

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong projection and the potential for it to be polarising, this isn't for the office. However, it excels in formal and date settings where its bold, luxurious character can shine without overwhelming.

Giorgio Armani Ikat Rouge

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

The warm spicy and woody accords make it ideal for fall and winter, while the touch of saffron can provide suitable depth for spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

The moderate projection allows it to be worn in the office or on a date night without overpowering those around. Not ideal for sporty activities due to its warmer profile.
