Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sheer Beauty EDT
Calvin Klein's Sheer Beauty might be called 'Sheer' for its fleeting nature as much as its delicate scent profile. A pleasant, unassuming fruity floral with a sparkling Bellini kick, it's a solid choice for those who prefer their fragrance to be a subtle whisper, though many wish it had more staying power.

Our Verdict - J'adore (EDP version) - No.9 EDP
Match Perfumes No.9 dupes Dior J'adore EDP, a creamy white-floral built on jasmine, tuberose and musk. The pear-peach opening reads true, but the floral heart is noticeably flatter and the musk-vanilla base wears closer to the skin than the diffusive, long-lasting original.
