Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Casbah Eau de Parfum
This one's a divisive beast. If you're a hardcore incense fan, you'll likely adore its potent, churchy vibes. For others, it's an acquired taste that might be just too much. Not a crowd-pleaser, but then, who wants to please everyone?

Our Verdict - Vert d'Encens Eau de Parfum
A truly unique green-amber scent that divides opinion but clearly captivates. It's either an addictive, mysterious forest floor dream or a cloying, messy confusion. Try before you buy, if you can even find it given its cult-favourite discontinued status.

Season and Occasion Fit

Casbah Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Casbah's beastly longevity and sillage, combined with its intensely smoky and spicy profile, make it less suitable for office wear. It truly shines for evening dates or formal events where its commanding presence can be appreciated, while being too heavy for casual or sport settings.

Vert d'Encens Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, combined with its distinct, somewhat 'gothic' woody-amber character, make it less suitable for office wear. However, its complex blend is highly appropriate for evening dates and formal events, though some find it versatile enough for sophisticated casual wear.
