Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Come L'Amore EDT

This is a divisive one. Many find it a stunning, high-quality white floral that's a perfect bridal scent, but others are put off by a 'soapy' or 'old-fashioned' quality, some even detecting a 'dog' or 'old wool blanket' scent in the dry down. A definite try-before-you-buy.

Our Verdict - Afrodite Extrait

This is a clean, creamy floral that leans heavily on lilac and peach, with a polarising patchouli presence. Some find it a beautifully soft and versatile scent, others can't get past that 'mainstream' fruity-patchouli blend.

Season and Occasion Fit

Come L'Amore

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer Autumn

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and summer pair best.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Office Casual

Its moderate sillage and significant longevity make it suitable for a date or formal event without being overpowering. While some find it too potent for the office, its elegance suggests it could work in a professional setting if applied lightly. It's too opulent for active sports.

Afrodite

Seasons

Best For:

Spring

Also Works:

Summer Autumn Winter

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Office Formal

While its longevity is praised, Afrodite's moderate sillage and soft, clean floral nature make it versatile for most settings without being overwhelming. It's especially suited for dates and casual wear due to its sensual and comforting appeal, but its unique floral-fruity-patchouli combination might not be a unanimous hit in formal or office environments.
