Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Fatale Eau de Parfum
A divisive scent for sure: some find it a delightful, budget-friendly dupe for popular gourmands, while others cringe at its perceived synthetic sweetness and poor performance. It's either a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, so try before you buy.
Statement
Our Verdict - Notorious Eau de Parfum
Notorious is an absolute chameleon, equally likely to spark adoration as it is disdain. Forget the name, it's a classy, intriguing floral with a surprising gourmand twist that some find divine and others, well, just a bit off.

Season and Occasion Fit

Fatale Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its moderate sillage and sweetness make it acceptable for office wear, but most reviews suggest it's best suited for dates due to its sensual character. The sweet, fruity profile lends itself to casual settings, though it might be a bit much for formal events if over-sprayed. It's definitely not a sport fragrance.
