Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Father Figure EDP
This one's a crowd-pleaser that punches way above its weight. A brilliant clean-girl scent, it’s a creamy, musky embrace, albeit one with a performance problem. Prepare for compliments, but also for frequent top-ups if you want it to last.

Our Verdict - True Love EDT
This Sophia Grojsman creation is a divisive one, sparking strong reactions from 'love it' to 'hate it'. If you're after a clean, powdery, Nivea-esque scent for quiet cosy moments, this budget-friendly classic might just be your True Love. But beware, some find it sharp, synthetic, or even reminiscent of baby wipes or bleach.

Season and Occasion Fit

Father Figure

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its intimate sillage and clean, fresh character make it ideal for casual and office wear, though its poor longevity means it won't be a distraction. The soft, musky dry-down makes it suitable for date nights, but the fleeting nature might not be enough for formal events or sports.

True Love

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Its soft sillage and clean, inoffensive character make it suitable for casual wear and even the office, though some find it too 'old-fashioned'. It's not particularly suited for formal events or energetic activities, and most reviews suggest its delicate nature wouldn't impress on a date.
