Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Herve Leger Femme Eau de Parfum

This discontinued Avon gem is a divisive one, but those who love it, really, really love it. Expect a sophisticated, woody-floral scent that defies its budget origins, especially on the right skin chemistry. A cult classic and a true 'if you know, you know' fragrance.

Our Verdict - Sicilian Wood Eau de Parfum

Tom Daxon's Sicilian Wood is a contentious beast. Some rave about its bright, natural citrus and refined woody drydown, while others dismiss it as fleeting and synthetic. Lovers say it’s a niche take on Dior Fahrenheit, but its poor longevity is a dealbreaker for many.

Spring Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual Formal

Also Works:

Office

Its woody and aromatic accords, coupled with reports of good longevity and sillage for many, make it versatile for evening and cooler weather. While some find it suitable for work due to its refined character, its depth might be a bit much for a very conservative office environment. It can be a bit strong if oversprayed.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Date Sport

Its fresh, clean citrus and woody profile makes it versatile for casual and office wear, where a softer sillage is appreciated. Despite some calling it 'masculine and refined,' its poor longevity limits its suitability for formal events or dates where lasting impact is desired.
