Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Blooming Flower Gardenia EDP
This one's a mixed bag. Some find it a delight, a lovely floral dupe. Others, however, are left with a dusty, faint aroma, making it a truly divisive scent. Proceed with caution on this one.

Our Verdict - Dolce&Gabbana Pour Femme EDP
A divisive one, this. For some, it's a soft, dreamy cloud of raspberry and marshmallow. For others, it's a bland, musky nothing that smells of baby wipes or air freshener. Best sniffed before buying, you picky lot.

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its generally light and floral character makes it suitable for casual wear or even the office, where it won't overpower. However, the perceived weakness by some might limit its impact for formal events or lively dates, and it's certainly not a sport scent.
