Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Chicago High
Prepare for a proper love-it-or-hate-it experience with Chicago High. It's a divisive beast of champagne, pineapples, honeyed tobacco, and animalic leather, delivering a boozy, smoky punch that some find utterly captivating and others utterly repulsive.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Sun Cities
Prepare for a proper love-it-or-hate-it situation here. It's giving 'Ganymede with a tropical twist' and, depending on who you ask, that's either ingenious or a Frankenstein's monster of fragrances. Definitely one to try before you buy, but don't knock it until you've sniffed it.

Season and Occasion Fit

Chicago High

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

This fragrance is far too loud and distinctive for the office, best saved for evenings out. Its strong projection and unique, boozy-tobacco profile make it perfect for date nights and formal events where you want to leave a lasting impression.

Sun Cities

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its bold, fruity-sweet, and leathery profile, especially with tropical notes, makes it a bit much for the office. However, its sophisticated and attention-grabbing nature, as noted by community reviews, suits dates and casual outings well, and it would work for some less stuffy formal events.
