Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - New Haarlem EDP
Divisive, love-it-or-hate-it. This 'sexy pancakes' scent has a cult following who adore its edible warmth and beast mode performance, but it's not for everyone. Some find the maple syrup note overwhelming and artificial, leaning into cloying territory.

Our Verdict - No.116 Rude Boy EDP
Rude Boy is one of Eden's own house blends rather than a named dupe - a sweet, clubby opening that settles into a warm, spiced amber base. It's an easy, crowd-pleasing scent for nights out rather than a copy of anything specific.

Season and Occasion Fit

New Haarlem

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its potent projection and syrupy sweetness make it a poor fit for the office, potentially cloying to others. However, the comforting gourmand profile and long-lasting nature are perfect for casual outings or intimate date nights, especially in cooler weather.
