Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Baptême du Feu
A love-it-or-hate-it scent that defies easy categorisation. This is a unique art-house creation, not a crowd-pleaser; a strange, gothic Christmas in a bottle - but be warned, it isn't for everyone.
Statement
Our Verdict - Just Cavalli Gold
This gold-toned flanker from Cavalli is certainly a luxurious scent, but boy, is it divisive. Some rave about its delicious gourmand qualities, while others find it cloying and even sickening. You'll either love its nutty, leathery sweetness or absolutely loathe it.

Season and Occasion Fit

Baptême du Feu

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

This perfume is quite strong and divisive, making it less suitable for an office setting. Its unique and bold character, along with its moderate sillage and good longevity, makes it a more appropriate choice for dates or evening formal events, particularly in cooler weather.

Just Cavalli Gold

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

With strong projection and good longevity reported, this fragrance is perhaps too bold for a professional office setting. It's perfectly suited for date nights and evening events where its sensual and warm character can truly shine, but could also work for casual outings if applied lightly.
