Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Impact Intense Eau de Parfum

A woody, spicy marvel that defies its designer price tag. Impact Intense is a surprisingly sophisticated blend that has the community divided between 'niche quality' and 'screechy pepper', but for many, it’s a confident, head-turning scent.

Our Verdict - Black Amber Eau de Parfum

This one's a gentle charmer, starting sweet and settling into a warm, woody embrace. It's not a beast, but it sticks around with a cosy presence.

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Its moderate to strong projection and woody-spicy profile make it less ideal for the office, but perfect for dates where its alluring warmth can shine. The 'beast mode projection' some experience makes it a potential compliment magnet for casual outings, especially during colder months.

Best For:

Also Works:

Office Formal

Its moderate projection and warm, inviting character make it suitable for close encounters like dates or casual outings. While not overpowering, the amber and woody accords might be a bit too intimate for formal settings, and it definitely isn't one for the gym.
