Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lily

This isn't a true lily scent for everyone, and it has its detractors who find it too ozonic or just plain generic. But for those who get it, Crabtree & Evelyn's Lily is a clean, green white floral that evokes spring and effortless calm, perfect for when you want to feel refreshed and put-together without fuss.

Our Verdict - Décou-Vert

Divisive, perplexing, and at times downright unpleasant. What starts as a fresh, dewy floral quickly collapses into something synthetic and surprisingly ammonia-like. Some find beauty in its unique blend; others can't wash it off fast enough. Proceed with extreme caution and definitely don't blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Lily

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual Sport

Its soft sillage and clean, fresh profile make it ideal for office wear and casual settings, as it's not overpowering. It's also suitable for light sport or outdoor activities, though less appropriate for formal events or romantic dates where something bolder might be preferred.

Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:

Casual

Also Works:

Office

Its initial fresh and clean profile makes it suitable for casual wear or an office setting if applied lightly. However, its often-criticised synthetic dry down and polarizing nature make it less ideal for dates or formal events where broad appeal is key. Performance is moderate, so it won't overwhelm in closer quarters.
