Which Should You Buy?
Ex Nihilo's Fleur Narcotique is a divisive one. It's either a beautiful, fresh-fruity floral masterpiece that pulls compliments, or a screechy, synthetic fabric softener that's aggressively 'clean'. Sample before committing to the hefty price tag.
Madly Kenzo! Kiss 'n Fly is one of those light, fruity numbers that's fine if you want something inoffensive for a few hours, but don't expect it to blow anyone away. It’s got a bit of 'meh' about it, and a lot of 'seen it before'.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh, clean, and floral profile makes it highly suitable for office and casual wear, with many reviewers calling it an 'office-appropriate' and 'easy reach' scent. While some find its longevity good for a night out, its relatively softer sillage and linear nature reduce its scoring for formal events and date nights.
Seasons
A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.
Occasions
Its soft sillage and limited longevity make it ideal for casual wear or the office where you don't want to overwhelm. It's too fleeting and light for formal events, but perfect for a quick, fresh pick-me-up.
