Which Should You Buy?
LouLou is a properly polarising scent. Some find it a bold, enigmatic masterpiece with a melancholic edge, others report cat piss and plastic dolls. This 80s icon is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but if it works for you, it's truly remarkable.
A divisive floral classic that people love for its sophisticated charm or dismiss for its perceived cheapness. Expect a clean, elegant scent, but be warned: reformulations mean many find it's lost its former beast-mode glory.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
LouLou's powerful sillage and dense, warm spicy and amber accords make it unsuitable for daily office wear, but perfect for dates or formal evening events where its rich character can shine. It's a bit much for casual daytime activities but some find its bold nature suits any occasion, especially in cooler weather.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its clean, inoffensive floral profile makes it ideal for office and casual wear. Despite some finding it perfect for formal events, mentions of its weaker modern performance mean it's unlikely to be a showstopper for a big night out.
