Which Should You Buy?
A divisive throwback to the early 2000s, Envy Me is either a fun, flirty fruity-floral or a chemical headache in a bottle. Most agree it's a nostalgic scent, but whether that's a good thing depends entirely on your personal taste.
This one's a divisive affair. Despite the enticing notes, Shanghai le Soir is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent with some finding its blackcurrant and musk combination turning surprisingly… unpleasant. Definitely test before you commit.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh, fruity, and floral profile makes it excellent for casual wear and suitable for dates, while some even enjoy it for light activity. Though some find it lasts all day, general sentiment points to moderate longevity, making it less ideal for formal settings where strong, consistent projection is typically desired. Its early 2000s 'shampoo' vibe leans away from office formality.
Seasons
Occasions
Given its 'extrait' concentration, this scent is likely to be quite present, making it less ideal for a close-quarters office environment. Its fruity-woody-floral profile lends itself well to evenings out and dressed-up occasions, but it's not so heavy that it can't be worn casually for those who enjoy its unique character.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Fruity, Woody, Soft Spicy accords and Rose, Litchi notes
