Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Louve Eau de Parfum
Louve is for almond lovers, pure and simple. This one divides opinion quite sharply, with some finding it a comforting dream and others identifying notes of "public bathroom cleaner" or "cherry cough syrup." Still, a unique experience if you're game.
Statement
Our Verdict - Gloria Eau de Parfum
This discontinued gem still holds a passionate following, hailed as a unique, irresistible potion. Finding an original bottle means shelling out serious cash, prompting a fierce hunt for dupes. It's a sweet, boozy cherry-almond dream that's sorely missed by many.

Season and Occasion Fit

Louve Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Given its moderate sillage and often described 'soft' nature, Louve is quite versatile for casual wear and suitable for a date. However, its heavy almond-gourmand character can be too sweet for formal settings or too prominent for the office if oversprayed. It’s certainly not for sport.

Gloria Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its rich, boozy gourmand profile and reported 'intense, long lasting' nature make it more suitable for evening or special occasions. While some found it office friendly due to its 'soft' and 'subtle' nature, many reviews describe it as a 'heady' and 'sexy' scent perfect for attracting attention.
