Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it beast. Some find it a delicious, syrupy dream, others are repulsed by what they perceive as burnt sugar, BO, or just plain weirdness. Definitely not a blind buy, unless you're a true Serge Lutens aficionado.
This isn't for the faint of heart. Orionis is a beastly amber, animalic and intense, that polarises opinion. Some find it a masterpiece of opulent depth, others a challenging, even 'skanky', experience. Definitely not a blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Given its strong, distinctive character and long-lasting nature, L'innommable shines brightest on dates and formal events where its unique profile can be appreciated without being overwhelming. It's too potent for the office and entirely unsuitable for sport, while casual wear depends heavily on personal preference and the specific setting.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
With its beastly performance and strong, animalic amber profile, Orionis is far too overwhelming for office or casual wear. It demands a special setting like a date or a formal evening event, where its commanding presence can be appreciated without being intrusive.
