Our Verdict - L'Impératrice 3 EDT
A fresh and fruity fragrance celebrated for its vibrant and cheerful profile, making it a versatile pick for daily wear.

Our Verdict - No.490 L'imperatrice EDP
No.490 mirrors D&G's L'Imperatrice watermelon-kiwi-rhubarb splash well, and given the original itself is a light, moderate-longevity EDT, the dupe's flatter dry-down is less of a gap here than usual. A juicy, carefree fruity-aquatic for warm days at a fraction of the price.
