Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Jazz

This is a seriously divisive one. Some hail Jazz as an undisputed masterpiece, a timeless classic that screams mature masculinity. Others, however, find it dated, bordering on unpleasant, with reformulations hitting particularly hard. You'll either love its aggressive opening and smooth drydown, or you'll find it an overwhelming blast from the past.

Our Verdict - LP No. 9

LP No. 9 is a bewitching, divisive 'love potion' that channels mystical woods and dark allure. You'll either adore its unique herbal-spicy greenness or dismiss it as a mere Goth imitation of Dior Dune - there's very little middle ground here. A cult classic, sadly discontinued.

Season and Occasion Fit

Jazz

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Jazz's strong, classic profile and considerable projection make it suitable for formal events and dates where you want to make an impression. It's a bit much for casual wear, and while some wear it to the office, its bold presence might be distracting. It is definitely not a sport fragrance.

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date

Also Works:

Casual Formal

Its substantial aromatic-spicy profile and moderate sillage make it a bit much for a formal office setting. However, its sophisticated yet unique character is ideal for dates and cooler casual outings, with some finding it versatile enough for formal events or just relaxing at home.
