Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The Moon Eau de Parfum
A truly polarising beast, The Moon is either a masterpiece or an unwearable scrubber, depending on who you ask. If you're a fan of mega-loud, animalic oud with a fruity twist, this could be your holy grail. For everyone else, tread with extreme caution.

Our Verdict - Empathy Eau de Parfum
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.

Season and Occasion Fit

The Moon Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its nuclear performance and strong sillage make it unsuitable for office or casual wear, as it's likely to overwhelm. This fragrance is best reserved for formal events or evening dates where its opulent and bold character can truly shine.

Empathy Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date

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.
