Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Very Estee EDP
Very Estee is a sophisticated, inoffensive floral, woody musk that's perfect for women who appreciate classic elegance with a modern twist. It is often described as subtle and understated, making it a safe choice for those who prefer a less bold fragrance.

Our Verdict - Charmful For Women EDP
Perfume Parlour's budget read of Estee Lauder Very Estee, the modern floral-woody-musk. It captures the dewy freesia-and-rose elegance over soft woods and musk, though it leans a shade sweeter and the airy, delicate quality of the already-light original thins out faster here.

Season and Occasion Fit

Very Estee

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its inoffensive, delicate floral-woody blend makes it highly suitable for office wear, where strong projection is often unwelcome. While elegant enough for formal settings or dates, its subtle nature may be overshadowed by more potent fragrances, and it's too refined for sporty activities.

Charmful For Women

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

The dewy, green-tinged floral feels brightest in spring and summer with an easy autumn crossover.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Refined and unobtrusive, it suits the office, daytime and elegant occasions equally well.
