Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Butterfly Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Butterfly is a bold and divisive scent, with some finding it a unique milky tuberose dream and others getting hit with an unexpected pickle jar. Definitely not a blind buy unless you fancy a surprise.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Alma Nera Extrait
A boozy, vanilla delight that's perfect for a night out. It's a sweet, woody embrace that'll have you feeling luxurious and a bit edgy. Definitely a crowd-pleaser for those who love a warm, rich scent.

Season and Occasion Fit

Butterfly Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its soft sillage and creamy dry-down make it suitable for close-quarters like dates, though its unique character might be a bit much for some offices. It's too subdued and elegant for sport, but its 'quiet luxury' feel works for casual and some formal settings.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its rich, boozy, and sweet profile makes it more suitable for evening wear and special occasions than a typical office environment. The longevity and sillage also suggest it's best appreciated in social settings rather than everyday casual use or sport.
