Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Shiyaaka EDP
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Some reckon it's a solid, clean, and ridiculously cheap gem, others call it pure synthetic nonsense. If you fancy a gamble on a polarising but potentially brilliant freshie, give it a whirl. Just be ready for that grandad soap vibe.

Our Verdict - Cedre Blanc EDP
Cedre Blanc is a beautiful, understated scent that's often overlooked. It's clean, fresh, and exceptionally natural, but don't expect a powerhouse; its subtlety means you'll need to spray generously to catch its full, fleeting beauty.

Season and Occasion Fit

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal Sport

Cedre Blanc

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its light, clean, and inoffensive profile makes it ideal for office and casual wear, though its subtle projection means it's not the best for making a grand statement. The fresh woody and floral accords lend themselves well to everyday scenarios, even if its performance is often noted as mild.
