Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Trouble Eau de Parfum
A creamy, lemony amber delight, Boucheron's Trouble is a discontinued masterpiece that inspires deep devotion. It's a true love-it-or-hate-it scent - a luxurious, warm embrace for some, a muddy headache for others. For those who get it, the name is perfectly ironic.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Elle L'aime Édition d’Été
A surprisingly warm and creamy take on citrus, perfect for those who find typical zesty freshies too sharp. However, be warned: its beauty is fleeting, so carry an atomizer.

Season and Occasion Fit

Trouble Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent sillage and long-lasting nature, coupled with its rich, heavy amber and white floral accords, make Trouble a showstopper best reserved for special evenings or date nights. It's too commanding for the office and entirely unsuitable for casual or athletic wear.

Elle L'aime Édition d’Été

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Given its delicate nature and poor longevity, this perfume is perfectly suited for casual wear or an office environment where a gentle skin scent is appreciated. It's too subtle for formal events, and offers moderate appeal for dates, but it's not a strong performer for sport.
