Which Should You Buy?
This one is pure lilac, bottled. It's shockingly realistic for some, transporting them back to childhood gardens, but others found it a bit too linear or even 'old lady' almond. A true love-it-or-hate-it lilac, but mostly love.
If your idea of a good time is lounging in a field of flowers with a handful of marzipan, Mempasa is your scent. It's a sweet, powdery floral that’s got the whole community swooning.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh, clean floral character and moderate performance make it suitable for casual wear and the office, where it's unlikely to offend. It's less ideal for formal settings due to its simplicity, and equally good for a low-key date or everyday activities.
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and winter pair best.
Occasions
Its prominent sweetness and strong sillage, as noted by reviewers, make it a bit much for a formal office setting. However, its romantic and elegant floral-nutty character is perfect for dates and evening events.
