Which Should You Buy?

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.

Our Verdict - Malefic Tattoo
This one's a proper marmite fragrance - you'll either adore its dense, spicy oud or find it a monochromatic bore. Some reckon it's a rose impostor, while others just get sweaty dental offices. Approach with an open mind, but don't say we didn't warn you about the polarising aroma.

Season and Occasion Fit

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.

Malefic Tattoo

Seasons

Best For:
Winter

A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its dense, oriental profile and strong presence make it too much for the typical office. It excels on dates and formal evenings where its luxurious, sensual character can truly shine. For casual wear, it's a bit heavy unless you're aiming for a very specific mood.
