Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - By Night EDP
This celeb cheapie polarises the room: some find it a delightful, budget-friendly 'Hypnotic Poison but better' for grown-up goth girls, others a synthetic mess. Expect a fruity, vanillic charm that doesn't overstay its welcome.
Statement
Our Verdict - Baby Doll EDP
Baby Doll divides opinion, with many praising its bright, playful charm and unique fruity-rose balance, while others find it too sweet or dated. It's a nostalgic trip for some, and a 'too sharp' headache for others, but few are indifferent.

Season and Occasion Fit

By Night

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its sweet and warm nature, often described as sexy and inviting, makes it perfect for dates and evening casual wear. However, its perceived moderate sillage and poor longevity mean frequent reapplication, making it less ideal for office or formal events where subtlety and endurance are key.

Baby Doll

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its bright, fresh fruity-floral profile makes it ideal for casual wear and can certainly lift spirits during sport. While some find it too youthful for a formal setting, its underlying sophistication allows it to work for a relaxed date, though its moderate sillage and longevity might require reapplication.
