Which Should You Buy?
A zesty, effervescent burst of citrus and florals, Clinique Happy is the quintessential mood-lifter-bright, clean, and instantly recognizable. Youthful and energetic, it's a timeless everyday pick for the feel-good crowd.
A budget take on Tommy Hilfiger's 90s classic Tommy Girl. The crisp citrus-and-blackcurrant opening and clean green-floral heart of honeysuckle and violet capture the original's fresh, breezy spirit; like most PP dupes it reads a little flatter and gives up some of Tommy Girl's surprisingly good staying power.
