Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Hamptons EDP
A divisive crowd-pleaser that splits opinion between being a beautiful, fresh unisex scent and a generic, overpriced clone. You'll likely either love it for its uplifting, coastal vibe or dismiss it as a 'meh' aquatic.

Our Verdict - Lotus Blossom & Water Lily EDC
This discontinued Jo Malone scent still has a devoted following thanks to its fresh, unique floral aquatic profile. While a few find it a bit too sharp, most praise its delicate balance of citrus zest, dewy florals, and a surprisingly warm, smoky base, longing for its return.
