Our verdict on By Saffron: Statement

This one's a wild card. Some swear it's a phenomenal, gender-neutral bargain, punching well above its weight. Others find it overwhelmingly feminine, while a few unlucky souls just get a 'mess'. It's a gamble, but if you win, it's a prize.

Its distinctive leather and saffron, while intriguing, might be a bit much for a conservative office, though some find it subtle enough. It leans more towards evening and casual wear, delivering an elegant yet edgy vibe that suits dates well. It's too complex and strong for sport, and its uniqueness might not always fit very formal settings.

About

Opens with a sharp, aromatic burst of juniper and tangy pomelo, quickly joined by the exotic spice of saffron. The heart unfolds into a sophisticated blend of smooth leather, powdery violet, and a subtle rose, avoiding anything too sweet. This complex core mellows into a woody base, where a juicy raspberry note adds a playful twist to vetiver and sheer woods, creating an intriguing, slightly mysterious warmth.
