Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Dot EDP
This one's a divisive little thing; people either love its youthful, fruity floral charm or dismiss it as generic and fleeting. It's a sweet, clean, inoffensive vibe for those who want a light, easy reach, but don't expect anything groundbreaking.

Our Verdict - 203 raspberry, vanilla, blackberry EDP
A pretty, light, and inoffensive fruity-floral that's an easy reach for many, but its fleeting performance means you'll be topping up throughout the day. It's a nice scent at a fair price point, but don't expect it to last.

Season and Occasion Fit

Dot

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile, coupled with often-reported moderate to low longevity and sillage, makes it ideal for office, casual, and even gym wear. It's not assertive enough for formal events or a truly impactful date night scent.

203 raspberry, vanilla, blackberry

Seasons

Best For:
Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Given its 'soft, fruity light' character and low longevity, it's perfect for office or casual wear where subtlety is appreciated. It wouldn't hold up for formal events or demanding date nights.
