Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Memoir Man Eau de Parfum

Memoir Man is a deeply divisive blend of gothic green and smoky leather, with its once-legendary performance now a mere memory. Expect a unique, artistic scent that's either a mysterious masterpiece or a watery disappointment, depending on the batch and your luck.

Our Verdict - Relique D'Amour Eau de Parfum

This is a masterpiece, provided you are a sad goth, or are happy to drop a small fortune on something that whispers rather than shouts. Fans rave about its evocative, melancholic spirit, while detractors lament its vanishing act.

Season and Occasion Fit

Memoir Man Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Its dark, smoky, and leathery profile leans into more intimate or formal settings. While not overpowering in newer batches, its unique and potent character makes it less suited for a typical office or sporty environment. It excels in cooler weather, making it ideal for evening dates or sophisticated gatherings.

Relique D'Amour Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:

Casual

Also Works:

Date

Its low sillage and poor longevity make it unsuitable for high-impact events like sport, but perfect for intimate settings where its subtle beauty can be appreciated. The unique green and white floral notes, combined with its "ghostly" nature, lend it well to casual or romantic wear, but it's a bit too unconventional for many formal or office environments.
