Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Havana Eau de Parfum
Aramis Havana is a bold, untamed classic that's a love-it-or-hate-it affair. It's a proper man's fragrance, eschewing modern trends for a blast of spicy tobacco and earthy green that certain types absolutely adore. Don't blind buy unless you're ready for an unapologetically vintage vibe.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Police Potion Absinthe For Him Eau de Parfum
This is a seriously polarising scent - some love its quirky, herbal take on barbershop freshness, while others find it a "nauseating" headache. If you like something a bit weird and wonderful, worth a sniff, but avoid if you're sensitive to synthetics or want a safe blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Havana Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong projection and distinct, retro character make it less suitable for a typical office. However, it's a solid choice for dates or formal events where its commanding presence can be appreciated. It's a bit too bold for casual daytime wear unless you aim to make a statement.

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its moderate projection and fresh, green character make it a decent casual or sport option, though some find it can be strong initially. However, the strong cannabis note might be too controversial for formal settings or the office, despite its eventual 'after shower' clean dry down.
