Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Soleil de Jeddah is a beast of a fragrance - potent, unique, and guaranteed to get people talking. Not for the faint-hearted, but for those who get it, it's a masterpiece.
A budget interpretation of Clive Christian's lauded Jump Up And Kiss Me Hedonistic. Hedonistic Kiss lands the dark sour-cherry opening over tobacco and smoked leather, but where the original is a dense, luxurious 25% concentration that lasts all day, this dupe renders thinner and sweeter, losing the smoky leather richness and the eternal longevity.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its potent sillage and longevity, this isn't an everyday office scent; it would overwhelm most workspaces. It excels in formal and date settings where its unique and luxurious character can be appreciated without being overbearing.
Seasons
A dark, sweet fruity-leather scent built for cold weather: cherry, tobacco and amber bloom in autumn and winter and turn heavy in summer heat.
Occasions
Its sensual, smoldering character suits evenings, dates and formal occasions far more than the office or sport.
