Which Should You Buy?
Smoke by Perfumer H is a divisive one. Some find it a sublime, sophisticated incense masterpiece, while others are baffled by the lack of smoke despite the name, finding it bland and overpriced. It's not a blind buy, but if it hits right, it's a deep, rich experience.
If you're seeking a sophisticated amber with serious gravitas, London delivers. It's a supremely blended, luxurious scent, though some find it a bit too subtle for the price tag. Expect quiet quality, not a shouty declaration.

Occasions
This fragrance's warm, spicy, and amber characteristics lend themselves perfectly to evening and cooler weather events. It's too refined and deep for casual wear or sport, and its powerful presence might be a bit much for a typical office setting, though its smoothness keeps it from being overwhelming.
