Brutus

Which Should You Buy?
A bold patchouli-amber base lifted by orange, bergamot and lavender. Royale Doré is the budget take on the modern luxe oriental - rich, warm and built for cool-weather evening wear.
Brutus is a divisive, earthy patchouli that swings from sophisticated fougere to 'unwashed @zz' depending on who you ask. It's a tamer Gualtieri, but temper your expectations regarding performance.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Patchouli-amber depth lifted by orange and bergamot wears at its best in cool weather; the rich oriental register reads heavy in summer and works for transitional spring evenings.
Occasions
A bold patchouli-amber statement signature suits date and formal evening contexts where presence is welcome; the rich projection is too much for sport and close-quarter office wear.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
While some find it versatile and office-appropriate due to its moderate sillage, others report fleeting longevity, making it less ideal for all-day formal or sport wear. The sophisticated woody and patchouli profile lends itself well to dates and casual refined settings.
