Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Jour
This one's a head-scratcher. Marketed as a fresh aquatic, the community reviews are brutal, questioning its very existence. It might be cheap, but even at that price, many feel utterly ripped off. Avoid at all costs, unless you're a glutton for punishment.
Statement
Our Verdict - La Viola Homme
A clean, fruity marine that punches above its weight. It's a fresh, uplifting blast perfect for summer, albeit with a softer, rather unisex jasmine touch that makes it surprisingly gentle. Definitely a crowd-pleaser.

Season and Occasion Fit

Jour

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Also Works:
Office Sport

The aquatic and citrus accords suggest a casual, warm-weather appeal, suitable for sport or very informal settings. However, given the overwhelmingly negative community reviews, its suitability for any occasion is highly questionable. It definitely won't work for date nights or formal events.

La Viola Homme

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, clean aquatic and citrus accords make it highly suitable as a casual everyday scent and for sports. While it's not overpowering, the strong freshness and lack of overt formality means it's less ideal for formal events, but still pleasant enough for an office environment or an informal date.
