Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Raindrops Eau de Parfum
Ajmal Raindrops: the affordable dupe that everyone's talking about, and disagreeing about. If you want Coco Mademoiselle at a fraction of the price, this does a decent job for most. Just don't tell the snobs.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Ilba Extrait
This one's a sensual shapeshifter, blending the comfortingly familiar with something altogether novel. It’s for those who appreciate a unique, musky ambergris glow that hints at florals without overwhelming the senses.

Raindrops Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

While some find it suitable for all occasions, its comparative lightness to its inspiration makes it less ideal for formal settings where a bolder statement might be preferred.

Best For:
Date Casual
