Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Summer White Sunset Eau de Parfum
Summer White Sunset is a surprisingly divisive cheapie. Some swear by its peachy, creamy warmth and luxurious feel, even comparing it to high-end scents. Others are firmly in the 'cheap and plasticky' camp, finding it a disappointment.
Statement
Our Verdict - 5th Avenue After Five Eau de Parfum
This flanker to the perennial 5th Avenue line is divisive. Some find its woody, musky floral blend an elegant, understated gem; others are left cold by what they perceive as a generic, fleeting 'shampoo' scent, or a 'furniture polish' nightmare. Try before you buy, it's not a safe blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Summer White Sunset Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its warm, cozy nature makes it perfect for casual wear and dates. While some find it suitable for summer, its warmth could be overpowering in formal or office settings, especially given its debated projection.

5th Avenue After Five Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual

Its moderate sillage and often-reported lighter longevity make it ideal for office wear, where it won't offend. Reviews suggest it's more of a daytime soft floral, making it less suitable for formal evening events or dates that demand a bolder statement. For a casual day it's a safe choice, but definitely not for sport.
