Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Royal Incense
This one is a divisive beast: some rave about its opulent, honeyed incense, calling it royal and addictive. Others find it screechy, overly floral, or just plain old-fashioned, likening it to grandma's house or even bug spray. Definitely not a blind buy.

Our Verdict - Così Blu
This one is a total curveball - people either absolutely love its "addictive" and "energising" intensity or find it utterly unwearable. Expect churchy incense, spiced absinthe, and animalic undertones; it’s no crowd-pleaser but it will certainly get you noticed.

Season and Occasion Fit

Royal Incense

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent projection and long-lasting nature, coupled with its rich, heavy accords of incense and honey, make it too much for an office setting. However, its luxurious and sensual character is well-suited for dates and formal evening wear, especially in cooler weather.

Così Blu

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Così Blu's intense sillage and unique, potent scent profile make it unsuitable for an office environment. It shines on dates and formal evenings, where its bold and mysterious character can truly make a statement, especially in cooler weather.
