Which Should You Buy?
Santal de Mysore is a divisive beast. For some, it's a sublime journey into creamy, spicy sandalwood. For others, it's a full-on curry house assault. Love it or hate it, it certainly makes an impression, and rarely a subtle one.
Fleur Cachée is a divisive, quirky scent that some hail as a masterpiece while others find it utterly unwearable. Expect a bold, spicy journey that's far from a safe blind buy, so sample it first and prepare for anything.

Given its strong, unique spicy profile and the mixed reviews regarding its intensity, this isn't an ideal office scent where subtlety often reigns. It leans more towards casual and date wear for those who appreciate its distinctiveness, with some finding it a comforting 'at-home' fragrance rather than an 'out-and-about' one.
