Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Musc Eau de Parfum
Molinard Musc is a divisive one, but those who love it, *really* love it. Forget clean musks; this is a full-bodied, balsamic, hippie dream that evokes head shops and incense with an undeniable potency. Definitely not a blind buy.

Our Verdict - Caftan Eau de Parfum
Caftan is a truly divisive scent; some rave about its luxurious incense and amber, calling it a masterpiece, while others dismiss it as an "old lady's closet" or overly synthetic baby powder. Test before you invest in this love-it-or-hate-it amber bomb.

Season and Occasion Fit

Musc Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Given its strong projection and distinctive 'head shop' character, this isn't office-friendly, unless you are a true hippie. It's too heavy for sport and a bit much for formal events, but perfect for dates or casual wear where you want to make a statement.
