Which Should You Buy?
A divisive yet iconic 'cheapie' from the 90s, Elizabeth Arden Green Tea is either delightfully fresh or smells like a cleaning product. It's a citrus-forward, light scent that performs like a body mist, but you can overspray without guilt thanks to the price.
No.049 mirrors Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea, the '90s-defining citrus-green scent - zesty lemon and bergamot over a soapy, clean floral base. Eden's version keeps that immediately recognisable fresh-clean signature but with a shorter lifespan than the original, fading into skin scent well before Green Tea's famously long-running freshness does.

Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile, coupled with poor longevity and sillage, makes it perfect for office or sport where you don't want to overpower. Reviewers often mention it as an 'after shower' or 'gym' scent, but its lack of projection means it's generally unsuitable for dates or formal events.
