Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ether Parfum

Ether is a genuinely polarised scent. For some, it's a masterpiece of nuanced oud and caramel; for others, it's an unqualified scrubber that smells like a particularly bad trip to the toilet. Definitely not a blind buy unless you like a bit of olfactory Russian roulette.

Our Verdict - Cologne du Maghreb Cologne

This is a truly gorgeous citrus cologne, natural and bright, but don't expect it to last. If you're a cologne 'hog' you'll drain this beauty in days, so manage your expectations (and your wallet). A genuine breath of fresh air, albeit a fleeting one.

Season and Occasion Fit

Ether Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

With strong projection and long-lasting performance, Ether is too assertive for the office. Its complex, oud-centric profile and sweet, gourmand undertones make it perfect for dates and evening formal events, while being a bit much for casual daytime wear or anything physical.

Cologne du Maghreb Cologne

Seasons

Best For:

Spring

Also Works:

Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, light profile makes it ideal for casual wear, office settings, and even post-sport refreshment. The poor longevity reported by many means it's not well suited for dates or formal events where projection and staying power are desired.
