Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Knowing Eau de Parfum
Seriously divisive yet utterly compelling, Knowing is a powerhouse chypre that demands attention. You'll either adore its unapologetic complexity or recoil from its 'old-school' punch; there's no middle ground here.

Our Verdict - Blasted Bloom Eau de Parfum
This one's a head-turner, and not always in a good way. Blasted Bloom is a seriously divisive aquatic powerhouse, blending marine notes with a robust green rose. Expect some to adore it, others to recoil - there's no middle ground here.

Season and Occasion Fit

Knowing Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

This fragrance is renowned for its beast-mode projection and longevity, making it less suitable for office wear where subtlety is often key. Its deep, complex, and luxurious chypre profile, coupled with strong performance, makes it perfect for formal events or a memorable date night.

Blasted Bloom Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its impressive strength and projection make it tricky for a conservative office setting, but it excels in casual, outdoor environments where its fresh, aquatic nature shines. It's a bit too bold and unconventional for formal events, though some might find its unique character intriguing for a date.
