Which Should You Buy?
A potent, juicy citrus bomb that splits opinion - some find it an invigorating summer staple, others recoil from its initial blast of cleaning product or a sickly sweet floral dry down. Definitely one to sample before committing to a full bottle.
A bittersweet symphony for many, Promesse is a much-missed fruity floral that perfectly captured its era. Once a youthful crowd-pleaser, its current inflated price and propensity to turn are a sad reality for those nostalgic for its charm.

Occasions
Its moderate sillage and fruity-floral character make it acceptable for casual wear and dates, but it's generally too light and sweet for formal settings. While some found it strong, most reviews indicated a soft projection, making it suitable for daytime but less impactful for evenings.
