Which Should You Buy?
Floriental is a surprisingly agreeable, complex plum-and-incense fragrance, if you can forgive the truly baffling performance on some. It's chic and modern, but don't expect a beast mode scent.
Sentier's dark cherry statement. Black cherry and cistus pull the heart toward a liqueur-like density, with ginger and nutmeg lifting the open and an incense-amber-sandalwood base providing the smoky-resinous frame. A direct neighbour of the Tom Ford Lost Cherry / Killian Roses on Ice / Initio cherry-and-resin niche register, but at a noticeably lower opening price than the bigger names.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its moderate projection on average makes it suitable for office wear, not being overly intrusive. The sophisticated blend of plum, incense, and woods, often described as 'sexy' or 'elegant', makes it a strong contender for dates and formal events, particularly in cooler weather. It's too rich and warm for sport.
Seasons
The cherry-and-resin warmth reads strongest in autumn and winter where the incense-amber base lands cleanly. Spring works in cool evenings; summer is too warm for the gourmand density.
Occasions
Date night and formal evening are the natural fit - the dark cherry register signals presence rather than restraint. Casual evening works; office and sport are misfits.
Similarity Breakdown
