Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Cashmere
A cult classic, Black Cashmere is a divisive, intoxicating blend of dark spices and woods. It's a masterpiece that inspires obsession, but be warned, it's not for everyone. If you get it, you really get it.
Acquired
Our Verdict - d'Orient
A truly polarising scent, d'Orient either delivers a gorgeous, sweet, spicy, ambery warmth, or a hideous whiff of burning plastic. You won't know until you try it, but those who love it, really love it.

Season and Occasion Fit

Black Cashmere

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and warm, spicy character make it less suitable for the office. However, its sophisticated and sensual allure is perfect for dates and evening events, ideally in cooler weather. Many reviews highlight its 'sexy' and 'intimate' qualities for special occasions.

d'Orient

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its warm, spicy, and amber-heavy profile makes it too intense for a typical office setting, but perfect for dates and eveningwear. While some find utility in casual settings, it's definitely not a sport scent.
