Above the Clouds vs Society 974: Volare Perfume Guide for Kuala Lumpur Date Nights

Two Volare Perfumes, Two Date Night Moods in KL

Got a date night coming up in Kuala Lumpur and you've decided on Volare? Then you're really choosing between two very different moods. Above the Clouds is the fresh, clean one. Society 974 is the warmer, woodier one. Both are EDPs in 100ml bottles, so the decision comes down to the vibe you want for the evening. This guide is for anyone in KL picking a scent for a night out — whether it's just for you, or one bottle for the two of you to share.

Above the Clouds: the fresh one

Above the Clouds is a men's EDP, and it's built for exactly the weather we live in. It opens with sparkling bergamot, lemon and grapefruit, so the first spray is bright and citrusy. The heart brings in a marine accord and ozone over lavender and clary sage, which gives it that cool, airy feel. The base is cedarwood, musk and an ambergris accord — some smooth depth, but not heavy.

The store describes it as a crisp men's fragrance and lists it for casual wear, formal settings, everyday use and special occasions. It also specifically mentions hot weather, the gym, travel and office wear. For a humid KL evening, that's a big plus — it's the kind of scent that feels light even when the air feels thick.

Who it suits

If you feel more yourself smelling fresh and clean on a date — dinner around KLCC, drinks in Bangsar, a walk after — this is the safe pick. It's a men's fragrance, so that's the direction it's built for.

Society 974: the warm, woody one

Society 974 is a unisex EDP in the woody, amber and vanilla family. It opens with bergamot and pink pepper, moves into a heart of amberwood and sandalwood, and the dry-down blends vanilla and musk. So it starts bright but settles into something warmer and smoother — more of an evening scent than a midday fresh one.

The store lists it for formal, casual, everyday and special occasions. And since it's unisex, it works whether you're buying it for yourself or you want one bottle the both of you can reach for.

Who it suits

If your date night leans dressier — a proper dinner, an anniversary, something a bit more put together — this is the one with more depth. And for couples who like sharing a scent, the unisex angle makes life easy.

So which one for your date night?

Both are listed for special occasions, so a night out fits either one. After that, it's simple:

  • Pick Above the Clouds if you want fresh, citrusy and aquatic, and you'd rather smell clean and airy in KL's heat and humidity.
  • Pick Society 974 if you want woody, ambery and vanilla, and you're after something warmer for the evening.
  • Buying one bottle for two? Society 974 is unisex, so it's the flexible option. Above the Clouds is listed as a men's fragrance.

Both come as 100ml EDPs, so neither is a small travel-size situation. Choose by mood: fresh and breezy, or warm and woody. Either way, you've got a solid date night option from Volare — just match the scent to the evening you've planned.
