Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Au Masculin
This early noughties gem is a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect potent licorice and anise, backed by sweet vanilla and boozy warmth. If you appreciate a unique, sweet-spicy signature, you're in for a treat, but it's definitely not for everyone.

Our Verdict - Spontaneous Generosity
This is a grown-up gourmand that nails the sweet spot between playful and sophisticated. It's a comforting yet distinctive blend that stands out from the crowd, perfect if you're after something unique without being challenging.

Season and Occasion Fit

Au Masculin

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong, sweet, and unique profile makes it a standout choice for dates and cooler casual outings, where its sillage can truly shine. The sweetness and potential for strong projection limit its appropriateness for office or formal settings, and it's definitely not one for sport.

Spontaneous Generosity

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its sweet, caramel-heavy profile makes it too much for an office, but it's perfect for dates and casual wear due to its comforting and inviting nature. While too gourmand for most formal events, it could suit a more relaxed, elegant cocktail evening.
