Leonis I Extrait

Which Should You Buy?
Habdan is seriously underrated, with a loyal following who call it PDM's hidden gem. It's a complex, classy blend that might not be a blind buy for everyone, but those who 'get' it absolutely adore its unique spicy-sweet personality.
Leonis I is a confidently woody-spicy amber, with glimpses of animalic oud. It's a majestic wear, though the performance might be a bit fleeting for some, especially given the price point and alternatives out there. Definitely not for the faint of heart or the light of wallet.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Habdan's warm, spicy, and woody accords, combined with its strong projection and longevity, make it ideal for cooler weather and evening wear. While potent, it's considered office-safe with light sprays owing to its smooth, non-offensive character, and its refined nature makes it perfect for formal settings and dates.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
While an Extrait, the "poof and then it was gone" comment suggests office wear might be acceptable, but its bold, luxurious, and slightly animalic profile leans heavily towards evening and formal occasions. The pronounced sillage from other reports also makes it less ideal for close-quarter settings like the office.
