Omnia Amethyste Eau de Toilette vs No.404 Paris Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This one's a delicate purple floral that conjures up spring gardens and fresh laundry. It's often criticised for its weak performance but universally praised for its gentle, inoffensive character. Don't expect it to shout, but it certainly whispers beautifully.
Eden's No.404 chases YSL Paris's iconic rose-violet bouquet - a bright, green-tinged rose over a powdery violet heart. It's a fair likeness of the classic's opening hours but thins out sooner, missing some of the original's rich, honeyed depth as it dries down.

Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its soft sillage and gentle, inoffensive nature make it perfect for office wear and casual settings, as many reviewers noted. While it's lovely for a relaxed date, it might not have the presence needed for a formal evening. Its clean, fresh quality also makes it suitable for light activity post-gym, though not during intense sport.
