Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - I Am Eau de Parfum
A divisive scent, with some raving about its raspberry-peppery allure, while others dismiss it as fleeting and uninspired. If you're after a lighter, fresher take on Givenchy's Hot Couture, this might just be your jam- or your cheap fruity frag.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Paramour Eau de Parfum
A smooth, sweet leather that’s much softer than its cousins. Paramour is an approachable gourmand leather with mass appeal, perfect if you want something less aggressive than the usual suspects.

Season and Occasion Fit

I Am Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its lighter projection and fresh, fruity accords make it suitable for office wear and casual settings without being overpowering. The perceived poor longevity by some suggests it might not hold up for longer formal events.

Paramour Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

While it can be a 'beast' on projection, its softer, smoother leather profile makes it more versatile than sharper leather scents. It shines on dates and formal evenings, but is too prominent for daily office wear and certainly not for sport.
