Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - When the Rain Stops EDT
A masterclass in dewy freshness, When the Rain Stops captures the tranquility and optimism of a sunlit sky after a downpour. For lovers of airy, green aquatic scents, it exudes understated sophistication.
Favourite
Our Verdict - No.208 Quercus Parfum
Eden's No.208 is inspired by Penhaligon's Quercus, keeping the citrus-to-oakmoss structure that makes the original such a universally likeable unisex fresh scent, though the drydown reads lighter and less mossy than the niche version.
