Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Something Blue
A divisive scent, Something Blue is either a clean, effervescent floral or a green, soapy nightmare. While its gentle character might suggest a bridal fragrance, its sharpness earns a mixed reception.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Black Stone
Black Stone is a seductive floral powerhouse that punches well above its weight category. It's a proper grown-up scent for those who like their florals rich and just a little bit naughty, divisive for some, but a love affair for many.

Season and Occasion Fit

Something Blue

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Formal

Its clean, fresh white floral and citrus accords make it an excellent choice for casual wear and the office, where it won't overpower. Its gentle sillage and moderate longevity mean it's unlikely to offend, and many find it suitable for daytime events.

Black Stone

Seasons

Best For:
Spring

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong, rich floral presence, Black Stone is best reserved for occasions where you want to make a statement, like a date or a formal event. It's perhaps a bit too potent for an office setting or casual wear, as its projection could be overwhelming.
