Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cracheuse de Flammes
A Bulgarian Otto rose soliflore from the 2015 Section d'Or - a lush, full-blooded rose veiled in peach, tuberose-edged greenness, styrax, and clean musk. Beautiful in the first hour, divisive in the dry-down.
Statement
Our Verdict - Lak
This one's a divisive beast. Many adore its rich, distinctive scent, especially the oil version, for its unique blend of dried fruits, nuts, and dark rose. However, be warned: the EDP can be a potent, almost overwhelming, beast that some find too much.

Season and Occasion Fit

Cracheuse de Flammes

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

Lush damascena rose with peach and styrax sits warmest in autumn and cool spring; the white-musk dry-down is too soft for deep winter and the rose body too rich for high summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Rose-soliflore character with carnation and styrax is a natural fit for date and formal evenings; not for sport, and too distinctive for casual day or office without cooler weather.

Lak

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent nature and strong projection, especially in the EDP, make it unsuitable for an office environment. However, its bold, distinctive character is well-suited for special occasions and cooler evening wear, such as dates or formal events.
