Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - J'adore Lumiere
This J'Adore flanker brightens up the original with a vibrant citrus-floral twist. It's a fresh, crowd-pleasing scent, though some find it a bit too shampoo-like or fleeting. If you want a lighter, sparkling J'Adore experience, this is your bottle.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Excellus Woman
This one's a bit of a gamble. Starts off a pretty, soft floral, but there's a real risk it'll turn off-key and alcoholic on you, making it a divisive choice.

Season and Occasion Fit

J'adore Lumiere

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal Sport

Its fresh and clean nature, coupled with mostly moderate sillage, makes it perfect for office and casual wear. While elegant and compliment-getting for dates, its lighter EDT concentration might mean shorter longevity for formal events, and it's too refined for active sports.

Excellus Woman

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its soft floral and citrus blend makes it versatile for casual wear and dates. While light enough for the office, the potential for an 'alcoholic' turn-off noted in reviews means care should be taken.
