Which Should You Buy?
This isn't your mum's Flower. Kenzo Oriental is a divisive beast: a love-it-or-hate-it incense bomb that captivates with its meditative depth, or repels with a sharp, 'unnatural' opening. If you appreciate a confident, smoky oriental, you'll mourn its discontinuation.
Divisive yet utterly captivating, Moth is either a gothic masterpiece evoking forgotten attics and smouldering enchantment, or a dusty, medicinal mess. You'll either love its unsettling beauty or find it completely unwearable.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its potent projection and distinct, 'arty' character make it less suitable for everyday office wear, with many finding it unwearable for work. However, its complex, dark allure fits well for date nights and formal events, particularly in colder weather, where its unique profile can be appreciated without overwhelming a casual setting.
