Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Magnolia Nobile
This is a bright, elegant floral with a prominent citrus opening that divides opinion. Some find it a bit too sharp and soapy, others adore its realistic magnolia and sunny disposition. It's a classy scent that generally pleases, though some wish it lasted longer.
Favourite
Our Verdict - J'adore Lumiere
This J'Adore flanker brightens up the original with a vibrant citrus-floral twist. It's a fresh, crowd-pleasing scent, though some find it a bit too shampoo-like or fleeting. If you want a lighter, sparkling J'Adore experience, this is your bottle.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

J'adore Lumiere

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal Sport

Its fresh and clean nature, coupled with mostly moderate sillage, makes it perfect for office and casual wear. While elegant and compliment-getting for dates, its lighter EDT concentration might mean shorter longevity for formal events, and it's too refined for active sports.
