Which Should You Buy?
Prepare for a proper head-scratcher. Empathy is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, delivering a bizarre, contradictory blend of synthetic raspberry and heavy tobacco that leaves many utterly baffled. Don't blind buy this one unless you fancy a gamble.
This one's a divisive smash-or-pass from Bruno Banani. Some find it a screechy, synthetic mess that's borderline nauseating, while others adore its fresh, fruity sparkle. It's loud, long-lasting, and definitely not for shrinking violets.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
The prominent tobacco and mixed reviews on its scent profile make it less suitable for formal or office settings. Its playful, yet often cloying, fruitiness paired with tobacco leans towards casual wear, with some finding it intriguing enough for a date.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its potent projection and intense sweetness make it ill-suited for the office, risking offence. However, its fresh, fruity character with strong sillage and longevity is perfect for casual outings or even active wear where you want to make an impact. It's a fun date night option if your partner enjoys bold, fruity scents.
