How does Lui perform in terms of projection and staying power?+−
Despite being an Eau de Toilette, Lui is known for "beast mode" performance. It typically lasts through an entire day and well into the night, with a sillage that is strong enough to be noticed without being completely antisocial if applied sparingly.
Is this a safe fragrance for the office or workplace?+−
Generally, no. Due to its animalic, leathery, and "dirty" patchouli profile, it is better suited for evening wear, outdoor events, or leisure activities. It may be considered too polarizing for a professional, enclosed environment.
Is Lui strictly for men, or can it be worn as a unisex scent?+−
While it is marketed for men and described by many as "purely masculine," some fans of bold, niche perfumery appreciate its warm, earthy drydown as a unisex option for those who enjoy dark, non-floral fragrances.
What are the best conditions for wearing this fragrance?+−
Lui shines in the cold. Its heavy, enveloping accords of spice and wood provide a sense of warmth that is most comfortable during winter and late autumn.
