Which Should You Buy?
A truly polarising beast, Fils de Joie is either a magnificent, syrupy jasmine full of carnal allure or an overpowering, headache-inducing scrubber. Its dramatic, heady nature ensures it's rarely forgotten, for better or worse.
A divisive, photorealistic lily that either transports you to a serene garden or feels uncomfortably close to a funeral bouquet. Its purity is unmatched, but handle with care - it's an assertive floral that some find overwhelming.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
This is a heavy, long-lasting fragrance with strong sillage, making it too powerful for most office environments. Its sensual, 'dirty' floral character makes it perfect for date nights or formal events, though some find it overwhelming if not applied sparingly.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its elegant and sophisticated floral profile makes Un Lys highly suitable for formal occasions and romantic dates. While some find its sillage moderate, its intensity can be too much for an office setting, though it can work for casual wear if applied lightly.
