Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Z9 EDP
A creamy Greenwich Village interpretation built on the same litchi and cassis fruit opening with a praline and vanilla close, leaning sweeter and more dessert-adjacent than the original, often compared to a softer Baccarat Rouge profile.
Statement
Our Verdict - Rainbow Fantasy EDP
Seriously divisive, mainly due to its terrible longevity. If you can get it for a steal, or manage to find a rare bottle that lasts, you're in for a sweet, airy treat. Otherwise, save your money.

Season and Occasion Fit

Z9

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

The litchi-cassis fruit opening has spring legs, but the praline-vanilla base drives this firmly into cool-weather territory; summer heat amplifies sweetness in a way that becomes cloying.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Creamy gourmand profile is built for date and casual evening wear; sweetness reads too playful for formal corporate and too dessert-loud for sport.

Rainbow Fantasy

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its sweet, light, and airy nature with an aquatic touch makes it great for casual wear, especially in warmer weather. However, the notoriously poor longevity means it struggles to make an impact for formal events or longer occasions, and the sweetness can be a bit much for the office. It's a 'spray and go' kind of scent, perfect for daytime activities.
