Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Dulcis in Fundo Eau de Parfum
Dulcis in Fundo is one of the original creamy citrus gourmands - and it's still a banger. Some find it a bit basic now, but others swear it's the best of its kind. Expect a delightful creamsicle, just beware of batch variations in performance and some rogue sour notes.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Amour De Cacao Eau de Parfum
This is a divisive but much-loved chocolate gourmand from a brand that sadly seems to have fallen into the reformulation trap. Performance complaints are rife, but for many, it's still a nostalgic, comforting, and utterly delicious scent.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

This is a versatile, comforting gourmand that works well for casual day-to-day wear and intimate dates. Its varying performance, from a skin scent to a monster, means for the office it's a bit of a gamble, while its sweetness typically makes it less suited for formal events or sport.

Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its sweet gourmand nature makes it highly suitable for casual wear and dates, as it's comforting and alluring. However, the strong gourmand profile and reported intimate projection make it less ideal for formal settings or the office. It's definitely not a sport scent.
