Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Coromandel EDP
A legendary, if divisive, Chanel masterpiece. You either get it or you don't - those who do fall madly in love with its rich, complex character, while others are left scratching their heads, or worse, running for the hills. Definitely not a blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Brave EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Boadicea The Victorious Valiant. Built around Grapefruit, Neroli, Orange, it offers the character of the original at a budget price - a wallet-friendly alternative for fans of Boadicea The Victorious Valiant.

Season and Occasion Fit

Coromandel

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its rich, strong projection and luxurious accords make it perfect for special evenings and dates, where its complexity can be appreciated. While some find it cozy enough for casual wear, its intensity makes it less suitable for most office environments or sport.

Brave

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

Best in spring and summer - the citrus, floral profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Keep it for casual and daily - the citrus accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
