Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper mixed bag. While some rave about its refreshing, sparkling qualities, others are less impressed with the initial 'urine-like' opening and questionable longevity. If you're after a super affordable, casual freshie, it might be worth a punt, but don't expect miracles.
A truly gorgeous, delicate cherry blossom floral, it's just a shame it lasts about as long as the blossom itself. Fleeting beauty for those who appreciate the ephemeral.

Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh, clean, and often fleeting performance makes it ideal for casual wear and sports. While it's light enough for the office, its lack of strong projection might make it less impactful for a date or formal event.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its soft sillage and poor longevity make it ideal for casual wear where close proximity is more common, and completely inoffensive for the office. It's too subdued for formal events but perfect for a quick, fresh pick-me-up during sports or everyday errands.
