Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Classique Eau de Toilette
Classique is an iconic, ultra-feminine bombshell - lush white florals and sweet vanilla with a powdery, sensual finish. Romantic and unmistakable, it leaves a memorable, warm trail that feels timeless yet never dull.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Loverdose Eau de Parfum
Loverdose is a divisive, intoxicating scent - a delicious liquorice bomb that leans into its edgy, rebellious side. Some find it a masterpiece, others a challenging, even 'bitchy' punk rock experience. Expect love-it-or-hate-it reactions, but it's certainly not boring.

Season and Occasion Fit

Classique Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Classique's sweet vanilla, powdery florals, and ambery warmth shine in cool to cold weather but retain enough freshness from citrus and orange blossom to work well in spring. It can feel too heavy in the hottest months, but excels from fall through winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

The bold, sensual trail and creamy sweetness make it ideal for dates and dressed-up occasions, while its classic powdery floral character gives it some versatility for casual wear. Projection and richness are less suited to the office or active settings.

Loverdose Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

With strong, sweet liquorice and anise accords, Loverdose isn't a safe bet for the office but shines on dates, especially in cooler weather, where its seductive nature can really come through. Its moderate sillage and disappointing longevity on some make it more suited for intimate settings rather than all-day wear.
