Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 5th Avenue EDP
A divisive floral classic that people love for its sophisticated charm or dismiss for its perceived cheapness. Expect a clean, elegant scent, but be warned: reformulations mean many find it's lost its former beast-mode glory.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Greenwich For Women EDP
A budget take on Elizabeth Arden's 5th Avenue. Greenwich captures that airy, luminous linden-and-lilac opening over a classic jasmine-tuberose floral heart and soft vanilla-musk base. Reviews are mixed - some find it close, others flag an extra sweetness not in the elegant original - but the sophisticated floral shape is recognisable.

Season and Occasion Fit

5th Avenue

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Formal
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, inoffensive floral profile makes it ideal for office and casual wear. Despite some finding it perfect for formal events, mentions of its weaker modern performance mean it's unlikely to be a showstopper for a big night out.

Greenwich For Women

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

The airy linden-led florals make this a refined scent for spring and autumn, a little soft for high summer and not rich enough for deep winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Elegant, restrained and close-wearing - ideal for the office, daily wear and dates, polished enough to edge into formal; too soft for sport.
