Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - London's Calling
This one's a mixed bag. Some are raving about its fresh aromatic qualities, while others find it a bit-part player that quickly settles into a rather dull leather base. It seems to either sing or sink depending on your skin chemistry.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Ambre Chic
If you're after that iconic designer iris-leather vibe without the hefty price tag, Ambre Chic is your budget champion. It's a nearly 1:1 dupe that's undeniably lovely, but be warned: you'll be sacrificing longevity. A fantastic option for those who don't mind reapplying.

Season and Occasion Fit

London's Calling

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its initial fresh-aromatic and sweet notes give it versatility for casual and date settings, but the prominent leather and potential for quick dry-down to a less nuanced base might not suit formal events. It's generally not suited for sport due to its rich, developing character.

Ambre Chic

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

Its sophisticated powdery iris and warm vanilla-leather notes make it ideal for date nights and formal events. Due to its generally mild projection and shorter longevity, it's also suitable for close-quarters like the office, just don't expect it to last all day without reapplying.
