Which Should You Buy?
Aqua Regia by Xerjoff is a divisive, full-bodied leather fragrance; a sophisticated scent for the bold. Not a safe blind-buy, but a masterpiece for those who connect with its complex, dark leather character.
A juicy, photorealistic fig fragrance that's a crowd-pleaser for most, though some may find the acidity a bit much or the violet too prominent. Definitely an understated gem.

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

The prominent leather and powdery notes make it too heavy for casual daytime or sport wear, but perfect for a sophisticated date or formal event.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and well-balanced fruitiness make it versatile for casual settings and dates, as it isn't overly intrusive. It's a bit too relaxed and fruity for formal events, but remains pleasant for the office if applied lightly.
