Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Flower by Kenzo Essentielle Eau de Parfum
This flanker isn't a radical departure from the original Flower, but it's refined, less cloying, and more balanced. It's a powdery floral that dances on the edge of 'too much', but largely succeeds due to its excellent blending and surprising longevity. A touch divisive, but mostly loved.

Our Verdict - Cas Attar
Divisive and bold, Cas Attar demands attention. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent with a heavy hand on the oud and animalics, making it a statement rather than a people-pleaser.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its intense, long-lasting nature and high sillage make it unsuitable for office wear, but perfect for making a grand statement at formal events or on an evening out. The polarising animalic notes aren't for every casual setting.
