Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The World According to Arthur Eau de Parfum
An opulent, incense-draped vanilla that radiates warmth and mystery without being brash. A plush, enveloping statement for cold nights and formal occasions, it is both modern and regal in its depth.

Our Verdict - Decibel Eau de Parfum
This one's proper divisive, a true love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Forget blind buys, you absolutely need to get your nose on Decibel before committing, because what some call unique and mesmerising, others call 'disgusting' and 'church-like'.

Season and Occasion Fit

The World According to Arthur Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Rich vanilla, incense, and amber make this best in cooler months, where its warmth and fullness shine. The sweetness and smokiness can be too enveloping for hot weather but are perfect for crisp fall and winter air.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its luxurious, resinous character and moderate projection suit formal events and elegant evenings. The sweet-smoky depth can be romantic but may overwhelm close office or athletic settings.

Decibel Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Decibel's strong sillage and warm, smoky, unique accords make it unsuitable for most office environments, but great for a night out or a casual evening gathering. Its distinctive character aligns well with date nights in cooler weather.
