Which Should You Buy?
Fracas is the OG tuberose, a monumental, polarising fragrance that's either 'sex in a bottle' or cloying dated hairspray, depending on your skin and the day. Don't blind buy, but give this queen a respect she deserves.
This 80s powerhouse is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, Giorgio is pure, unadulterated sunshine and glamour. It's bold, unapologetic, and has everyone talking - just make sure you can handle the attention.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Fracas is a powerhouse, often described as 'heavy' and 'loud', making it less suitable for office wear. Its voluptuous white floral and sensual character, frequently associated with 'grown women' and 'date night', make it perfect for formal events and romantic encounters.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its famously strong projection and rich white floral accords make it far too overpowering for an office setting where it would undoubtedly cause a commotion. It shines on dates and formal events, particularly in smaller doses, where its luxurious feel can make an impact. For casual wear, it's best reserved for those who truly want to make a statement.
