Which Should You Buy?
A truly polarising scent - some find it a gorgeous, seductive blend of sweet florals and woods, others recoil from a harsh, industrial unpleasantness or an overwhelming hit of black licorice. Definitely sample first, as Azalea is not a safe blind buy.
This is Talco, plain and simple. If you're after a sophisticated take on baby powder, New Notes delivers exactly that. It's polarising, with some finding it a comforting, clean dream and others dismissing it as too literal and, frankly, overpriced for what it is.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and spring.
Occasions
Its striking, often 'loud' projection and complex, sweet-balsamic character make it unsuitable for office wear, but ideal for dates or evening events where its unique profile can shine. The sweet, creamy yellow floral elements allow for some versatility in casual settings, particularly in cooler weather.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its potent longevity and sillage mean a light hand is needed, making it less ideal for enclosed office spaces or formal events. However, its clean, comforting profile makes it perfect for casual wear, especially at home, and it's even described as a 'perfect after-gym perfume' by some.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Sweet, Powdery, Vanilla accords and Ylang-Ylang, Musk notes
