Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lagos EDP
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Dior Fahrenheit (1988) - mandarin orange, violet and leather translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
Statement
Our Verdict - Beautiful Magnolia Intense EDP
A divisive scent for the iris-averse, but a sophisticated, grown-up gem for those who appreciate a powdery, clean floral with a subtle edge. It's a 'love it or hate it' situation, primarily due to its prominent, almost waxy iris accord.

Beautiful Magnolia Intense

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its moderate sillage and powdery floral nature make it suitable for office wear, as it's unlikely to offend. While elegant, its subtle projection means it won't dominate a formal event, and its lack of freshness makes it unsuitable for sport.
