Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - The Beat EDP
This discontinued gem is mourned by many, offering a uniquely fresh yet warm profile that evokes nostalgia and widespread compliments. Its 'masterpiece' status among fans is undeniable, contrasting sharply with those who find it a bit too peppery or simply 'meh'.

Our Verdict - Water Paris EDP
Water Paris copies Cartier's Eau de Cartier - that sparkling yuzu-citrus over a green violet-leaf-and-lavender heart and soft woody-musk drydown. The dupe captures the crisp, airy unisex character but reads flatter and even lighter than the already-subtle original.
