Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Very Valentino EDP
A divisive scent for sure: some find it a clean, elegant floral, while others are reminded of bug spray. If you can still get your hands on it, prepare for a hit of nostalgia.
Statement
Our Verdict - 086 Maniac EDP
086 follows Giorgio Armani Mania's fruity-floral-powdery arc - blackcurrant and citrus top, peony-iris-lily-of-the-valley heart, musky sandalwood base - but the iris comes through softer and the overall blend feels less distinctive than the original's slightly quirky character.

Season and Occasion Fit

Very Valentino

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, inoffensive nature and moderate sillage make it ideal for office and casual wear, as many reviewers noted. It's less suited for formal events due to its light, airy feel, and definitely not a sport scent.
