Which Should You Buy?
A truly gorgeous, photo-realistic clementine opener that is universally adored. If only that vibrant top note stuck around, this would be a year-round staple. As it stands, it's a fleeting summer dream, perfect for an instant pick-me-up - just be prepared to reapply often.
Perfume Parlour's version of Issey Miyake's L'Eau Bleue d'Issey pour Homme. The green, spicy-aromatic rosemary-and-lime over a woody patchouli-cedar base is captured, with Japanese Sapphire pushing a fuller wear and improving on the original's somewhat modest longevity.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its luminous, clean profile and notoriously poor longevity make it perfectly suited for casual wear or the office, where subtlety is key. It's too ephemeral and light for formal events and lacks the depth for a serious date night, but perfect for a quick, refreshing lift before or after sport.
Seasons
The green, herbal-aromatic and woody profile suits spring, summer and early autumn wear.
Occasions
A versatile green aromatic ideal for casual and daily wear, fresh enough for the office and active days.
