Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Eros
Irresistibly bold and seductive, Eros is a clubbing powerhouse that balances electrifying freshness with addictive vanilla sweetness. Not for the timid, it grabs attention and never lets go.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Followed Noir
A budget take on Kerosene's Followed - the same bitter coffee melting into caramel, chocolate and vanilla. Followed Noir captures the cosy gourmand DNA but tames the original's legendary, room-filling performance into something far closer to the skin.

Season and Occasion Fit

Eros

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Eros works year round but its sweet vanilla and tonka base, paired with bold projection, shine in cooler weather, while the fresh mint and citrus opening keep it wearable in spring and on summer nights.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its powerful projection and sweetness make it ideal for nights out, dates, and casual settings, but it risks overpowering in close office or sporty situations.

Followed Noir

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A heavy coffee-caramel gourmand that belongs in autumn and winter; warm weather turns it cloying.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Cosy and sweet, it suits date nights, evenings and casual cold-weather wear more than the office or sport.
