Which Should You Buy?
A divisive floral powerhouse, Pleasures is either a timeless, clean classic or a screechy, headache-inducing scrubber. Its vibrant green-floral intensity makes it a love-it-or-hate-it scent with serious staying power.
Graceful chases YSL's iconic Rive Gauche - that frosty, soapy aldehyde blast over a classic rose-iris-jasmine bouquet drying down powdery and mossy. The vintage, metallic-elegant mood lands, but it reads flatter and softer, missing the original's sharp, electric aldehydic snap and refined depth.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its strong sillage and longevity mean it might be too much for the office if oversprayed, although some find it professional. Its classic, clean floral profile makes it versatile for casual outings and even formal events, while its intensity is ill-suited for sport.
Seasons
A powdery aldehydic floral suits spring and cooler months, staying wearable but a touch heavy in peak summer.
Occasions
Refined and classic, it works for the office, formal occasions, daily wear and evenings more than sport.
