Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Royal Arms Diamond Edition EDP

A divisive floral bouquet; some find it a gorgeous, powdery violet-rose delight, others just ‘old-lady’ stage makeup. It's a proper British country garden in a bottle, if a bit fleeting.

Favourite

Our Verdict - Astor Place EDP

Astor Place is a divisive powerhouse floral; some can't get enough of its vibrant freshness, while others find it screechy and overbearing. It's a loud and unapologetic statement, perfect for those who want their presence known.

Given its strong powdery floral character, this leans towards more traditional or formal settings. Its moderate sillage keeps it from being overwhelming for an office, while a shorter longevity means it's less suited for all-day wear.

With strong sillage and impressive longevity, Astor Place can be a bit much for the office. Its vibrant floral and ozonic profile makes it fantastic for casual wear and dates, but it might be too playful for very formal settings.
