Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rouge Velours Eau de Parfum

This is a bold, velvety rose-patchouli that'll make you feel like 'that girl' - or 'that guy'. It's not a safe blind buy thanks to the prominent patchouli, but for those who love a deep, dark rose, it’s an absolute stunner and a solid example of the genre.

Our Verdict - Crushing Bloom Eau de Parfum

Tom Daxon's Crushing Bloom is a classy, green floral for the modern connoisseur. It's a fresh, uplifting bouquet with an elegant backbone, though some might find the lily a touch too intense. A definite crowd-pleaser for those who appreciate refined florals.

Best For:

Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual

Its potent rose and earthy patchouli accords, combined with strong performance reports, make it too bold for an office setting. However, its luxurious and sensual character is perfect for dates and formal events, though for casual wear it depends on the wearer's confidence.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Date Formal

Also Works:

Casual
