Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Emporio Armani City Glam EDP
A bittersweet discontinued gem, City Glam polarises with its sharp opening before settling into a loved, unique chypre floral. Many mourn its absence, while a vocal few found it too harsh or chemical. Definitely a scent that plays differently on skin.
Acquired
Our Verdict - GA180 City Glam Her EDP
GA180 revives the discontinued Emporio Armani City Glam for Her's blackcurrant-rose chypre well, and Jubilee's own customers say it smells just like they remember, though the oakmoss-patchouli base is softer and less mossy-sharp than Annick Menardo's original.

Season and Occasion Fit

Emporio Armani City Glam

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its above-average performance and bold character make it less ideal for the office or formal events. However, its 'night out' and 'drinks at a rooftop bar' vibe, alongside its casual 'jeans and t-shirt' appeal, demonstrate its versatility for dates and casual wear.

GA180 City Glam Her

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Autumn

A fruity chypre-floral that transitions well between spring and autumn, without being a strict summer or winter scent.

Occasions

Also Works:
Office Casual

Polished and fresh enough for office wear and casual days; not showy enough to be a formal-evening choice.
