Which Should You Buy?
Dune Pour Homme is a quietly sophisticated green-woody scent with a breezy, natural elegance. Its fig leaf and mossy woods evoke the serene calm of a coastal landscape, perfect for understated daily refinement.
Divisive and distinctive, Basilico & Fellini serves up a controversial, hyper-realistic green blast. Some find it a summer garden dream, others a Pesto nightmare or an anise overload. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The crisp fig leaf, citrus, and green facets make this ideal for spring and early fall, offering a breezy and natural feel. Its lightness can work in summer, but the subtle woody drydown is less suited to cold winter days.
Occasions
Its understated, clean green freshness never overpowers, making it perfect for office and everyday wear. The subtle sillage and natural vibe also work well for casual or daytime dates, but it's too light for highly formal or athletic settings.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its fresh, green, and unique character makes it a standout for casual summer days and even light sport, evoking open spaces. While some might appreciate its distinctiveness on a date, its strong, sometimes polarising, herbal opening might be too bold for formal settings or a conservative office.
