Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Voce Viva EDP
A luminous floral bouquet with a sweet citrus opening and creamy musky-vanilla base, Voce Viva radiates modern femininity and understated confidence. Perfect for everyday wear but never fades into the background.
Favourite
Our Verdict - 401 EDP
No. 401 follows Valentino's Voce Viva mandarin-ginger-gardenia structure closely, but the sandalwood-oakmoss base is thinner and the musk fades sooner, so the crystalline, long-lasting freshness the original is prized for shortens noticeably here.

Also Works:
Formal

With moderate projection and an elegant, clean floral-citrus profile, it suits office and day-to-evening social occasions. Its subtle sillage makes it versatile but not quite formal or sporty.
