Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bois Oriental Eau de Parfum
An early-Sheldrake cedar in the Salons du Palais Royal tradition - quietly grand rather than opulent, with Lutens' creamy sandalwood-amber drydown carrying a soft spice halo. Reads classy and self-possessed rather than loud.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Lucky Charm Extrait
If you're after a polished, slightly sweet woody aromatic fit for a refined bloke, Lucky Charm delivers a smooth, distinctive ride. Just don't go expecting anything dark or carnal - this one's all about airy sophistication.

Season and Occasion Fit

Bois Oriental Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Cedar-spice and warm sandalwood-amber are autumn and winter naturals; the heaviness reads out of place in summer and only edges into spring on cooler days.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Quietly composed and mature - well suited to date and formal evening wear, with office viable for those who like a discreet warm cedar signature. Too distinctive for sport.

Lucky Charm Extrait

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Given its strong, aromatic, and slightly sweet character, Lucky Charm is best suited for formal occasions or dates where a sophisticated impression is desired. While it has good longevity and moderate projection, its distinctiveness might be a bit much for everyday casual wear, and it's certainly not for sport.
