Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - La Petite Robe Noire EDT
A Guerlain for the masses, La Petite Robe Noire EDT is either a crowd-pleasing, fresh cherry dream or a synthetic, headache-inducing scrubber. Its lighter touch compared to the EDP makes it versatile, but polarising enough to make a blind buy risky.
Favourite
Our Verdict - No.412 La Panthère EDP
No.412 follows Cartier's chypre-floral blueprint closely - fruity opening into a luminous gardenia heart - but the oakmoss-patchouli base is noticeably lighter than the original's velvety musk chypre, and longevity trails the genuine EDP's reported 7-9 hours by some margin.
