Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Body Tender

This flanker is a divisive one: some find it a delightful, lighter take on the original Body; others find it too sharply green, even caustic. Most agree it's less 'tender' than its name implies, with a prominent wormwood note at its heart.

Our Verdict - Bloom Love in Valley

This one's a bit of a head-scratcher. Some find its green apple and floral blend refreshing and unique, but others get hit with a cloying sweetness that reminds them of medicinal syrup. It's divisive, so definitely try before you buy.

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual Sport

Also Works:

Date

Its fresh, clean, and often subtle sillage makes it great for office and casual wear. The polarizing wormwood note and, for some, poor longevity, make it less ideal for formal events or dates where a more universally appealing or long-lasting scent is often desired.

Best For:

Casual

Also Works:

Date

Given its fruity and green dominant accords, this fragrance leans more casual. It's probably a bit too bright and potentially off-puttingly sweet for a formal event or intense sport.
