Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 6 place Saint Sulpice
A truly luxurious and sophisticated leather amber, Saint Sulpice strikes a beautiful balance between warmth and refinement. It's a scent that smells expensive, for those who don't mind the price tag. Just be aware, some find it a bit too tonka-heavy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Sulpice Spice
A budget read of YSL's 6 Place Saint Sulpice - that refined, buttery-dry saffron-and-leather built on warm labdanum. Sulpice Spice keeps the spicy-leather core but pushes the saffron and sweetness forward via the tonka, trading the original's quiet, intellectual balance for something warmer and more obvious. Still a handsome, grown-up leather for cold-weather evenings.

Season and Occasion Fit

6 place Saint Sulpice

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent performance and rich leather and amber accords make it less suitable for the office, but ideal for dates and formal occasions. The fragrance is too heavy for casual daytime wear or sport due to its intense projection and longevity.
