Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lost in a Dream
This one's a divisive one. Many find it comfortably familiar, almost a clone of other lactonic gourmands. Others rave about its unique buttery charm and creamy sweetness. Sample before committing, as skin chemistry plays a massive role here.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Olympea EDP
Dupe Lympic keeps Rabanne Olympéa's core idea - green mandarin and jasmine over a salted-vanilla heart on a sandalwood-cashmeran-ambergris base - largely intact, but the dupe's vanilla reads sweeter and flatter without the original's distinctive salty tang, and the woody base fades to little more than a whisper by the afternoon.

Season and Occasion Fit

Lost in a Dream

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Given its creamy, sweet, and moderately projecting nature, this fragrance is perfect for casual wear and intimate dates. While some find it office-safe due to its soft sillage, others report it being too spicy or woody, making it less of a universal office choice. It's generally too rich and casual for formal events and entirely unsuitable for sport.

Olympea

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

The green, salty-floral opening and light vanilla heart are built for warm weather - spring and summer let it feel fresh rather than cloying, while the thin base leaves little to carry it through winter cold.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Bright and a little sweet, it suits a casual day or a date more than the office, and it lacks the weight for formal wear.
