Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bamboo Harmony Eau de Parfum

Bamboo Harmony is a divisive one. Many find this green tea and citrus blend to be a 'zen' spa experience, while a good few others dismiss it as an overpriced, generic freshie with woeful performance. Your mileage (and wallet) may vary.

Our Verdict - Waterways Spell Extrait

A divisive take on green freshness. Some find it a watery, boring, overpriced affair that vaguely smells of an old tea shop, whilst others enjoy its unique salty, aquatic and aromatic nuances. You'll need to try it for yourself to see if you get the magic from the waterways, or a musty old handbag.

Also Works:

Formal

Its clean, fresh, and often-described 'inoffensive' nature, coupled with many noting its light projection, makes it an excellent choice for office wear or casual daytime use.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Sport

Its fresh, green, and subtle nature with weak projection means it's suitable for office wear, but less so for occasions where you want to make a bigger statement like dates or formal events. The clean and aquatic notes make it a decent pick for casual or sport settings, though its price point might make you hesitate.
