Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Incanto Eau de Parfum

A divisive fruity-floral, some love its clean, comforting vibe, while others find it generic or even harsh. It's a proper budget gem with a surprisingly sophisticated backbone for many, but definitely not a blind buy for everyone.

Our Verdict - Violet Sapphire Eau de Parfum

Violet Sapphire is a divisive one. Fans call it a 'beast mode' fruity-oud, a step up from the Erba Pura style with a smoother, more natural feel. Critics, though, find it overpriced and surprisingly similar to mass-market fruity fragrances, with some detecting an unpleasant 'dirty musk' or 'barnyard' oud.

Its moderate sillage and clean, inoffensive profile make it suitable for office wear, as noted by several reviewers. The comforting and smooth character lends itself well to casual daytime wear, but it's too light and understated for formal events, and certainly not for sport.

This perfume is a 'beast mode' performer with strong projection and longevity, making it too overwhelming for close-quarter office environments. Its opulent blend of fruits, florals, and oud is perfect for evening dates and formal events where you want to make a statement, but some find it versatile enough for more casual, daring wear.
