Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Chance Vive Eau de Toilette

This Chance flanker is divisive: fans adore its sparkling, uplifting citrus-musk blend and effortless Chanel elegance, hailing it a versatile signature. Detractors, however, find it fleeting, generic, or plagued by an unfortunate ‘grandma’ or ‘cat pee’ dry down on their skin. Definitely one to try before you buy.

Our Verdict - Empower You Eau de Parfum

This one's a bright, citrusy splash that promises to 'Empower You,' though the reality is a touch more modest. It's a pleasant, inoffensive scent that's easy to wear, but don't expect it to set the world alight.

Date

Its moderate longevity and projection, coupled with a fresh and inoffensive citrus-floral profile, make it highly suitable for office and casual wear. The brightness of the citrus also makes it a good fit for everyday activities and even light sport, though its lack of bold projection makes it less ideal for formal settings or a standout date night.
