Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L for Women EDP
This one's a divisive sort. Some rave about its peppery rose charm, while others are left cold by its poor staying power and eye-watering price tag. You'll either get it, or you won't. If you're going to splurge, just make sure you're getting some decent wear out of it.

Our Verdict - Baja EDP
Baja recreates Paloma Picasso, the iconic 1984 floral chypre that smells of nothing else but itself. It keeps the green, soapy-floral attack and that defiantly mossy, animalic-adjacent base, but the dupe softens the bite and wears closer than the original's all-day powerhouse projection. A characterful budget homage to a true classic.

Season and Occasion Fit

L for Women

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:
Office Formal
Also Works:
Date Casual

Its fresh-spicy and rose accords make it suitably versatile for office and formal wear, leaning towards understated elegance. Despite a few claims of good performance, multiple reviews highlight poor longevity, which limits its suitability for longer events but isn't necessarily a hindrance for casual or office use.

Baja

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

The dark, mossy chypre weight is made for autumn and winter, feeling heavy and out of place in warm weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Office Date

A statement scent for formal evenings and confident office wear, too assertive for casual or sporty settings.
