No.88 Eau de Parfum
Czech & Speake · £185
Worth being NRY provisional
Bergamot and geranium over rose otto and frangipani, drying down to vetiver and sandalwood, and it is the scent the house is known for. Czech & Speake have reformulated it as an eau de parfum rather than the cologne it was, which is the substantive change: it stays on the skin through a working day. Written for either sex and it reads that way, formal without being stuffy.
- For
- Someone who wants one good bottle that covers the office and dinner afterwards.
- Not for
- Anyone after something light and summery, for which the Neroli is the same house at less strength.

Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
