Which Should You Buy?
Olene is not just a white floral; it's *the* white floral. A photorealistic trip into a blooming jasmine bush, it's a scent for unapologetic floral fanatics. While some find its indolic nature a bit much, most find it utterly captivating, evoking nostalgia and a rare natural purity. It’s got a loyal following for a reason.
Carat is a divisive one: some adore its sparkling, fresh floral bouquet, others find it too sharp, synthetic, or just plain boring. If you fancy a spring garden in a bottle, give it a go, but expect a mixed bag of opinions.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its intensely floral and natural character, combined with moderate sillage and longevity, makes it perfect for casual and romantic settings. While too dominant for some office environments, its freshness allows for daytime use, and it's perhaps a touch too informal for most strictly formal events.

Occasions
Carat's clean, fresh floral profile makes it excellent for office and casual wear, as it's generally inoffensive. While elegant enough for formal occasions, some find its sillage too intimate, which might underwhelm for a date or sporty event where more presence is desired.
