Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cloud EDP
Cloud is a crowd-pleasing, airy gourmand with a whipped cream and coconut heart that feels both comforting and flirty. Its sweet, milky character is easy to love and surprisingly versatile.
Statement
Our Verdict - Oriana - 943 EDP
No. 943 borrows the marshmallow-and-praline gourmand cloud that made Ariana Grande's Cloud a hit, swapping in raspberry and mandarin for a sweeter, more one-note dessert effect than the original's more balanced pear-lavender-coconut structure.
