Which Should You Buy?
Salome is a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it animalic chypre that demands attention. It's a modern classic for those brave enough to wear something truly carnal and vintage-inspired.
A divisive powerhouse with an equally powerful price tag. Fans hail it as Roja Dove's magnum opus, a luxurious spiced leather that leaves a mesmerising trail. Detractors call it overrated, unoriginal, and a cloying mess of conflicting notes. It's not for the faint of heart - or those on a budget.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its strong sillage and potent animalic character, Salome is far too provocative for an office setting or casual wear. It truly shines for date nights and formal events, where its intense, sensual allure can be appreciated.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and exceptional longevity (often cited at 10-20+ hours), M No. 03 is better suited for evenings and special occasions where its opulence can shine without overwhelming. Its rich, spicy leather profile lends itself well to formal events and intimate dates, but the intensity makes it less ideal for casual wear or the office.
