Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - de Pamplemousse Rose EDC
A truly gorgeous, photo-realistic grapefruit opening, swiftly followed by a soft, fresh rose. However, this beauty is tragically fleeting, a common complaint that plagues an otherwise stunning fragrance.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Amber Aquilaria EDP
Amber Aquilaria is an acquired taste; some will adore its rough-around-the-edges charm, others will find it too challenging. It's a bold, boozy, woody experience that certainly isn't for everyone.

Season and Occasion Fit

de Pamplemousse Rose

Seasons

Best For:

Also Works:

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Spring Autumn

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
