Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Luxe Gardenia EDT

This one's a divisive floral. Some find it a clean, creamy office-friendly scent, while others recoil, comparing it to hairspray. It's affordable, so if you're curious about a budget gardenia, it might be worth a punt, but proceed with caution.

Season and Occasion Fit

Power of You

Seasons

Best For:

Spring

Also Works:

Summer Autumn

Power of You shines in spring and early summer with its juicy, tart passion fruit and zesty citrus, which feel uplifting and radiant in mild to warm weather. The rich vanilla and benzoin base brings enough warmth and sweetness to transition into fall, but the high sweetness may feel cloying in the hottest or coldest extremes.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Best for casual, daytime fun, or date nights where you want to stand out with a playful, addictive trail. Its bold fruity-gourmand character makes it less suited for formal or professional settings, but it works for social and leisure occasions.

Luxe Gardenia

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer Autumn

Also Works:

Winter

Built on white floral, lactonic and coconut - a composition that sits best in spring, summer and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:

Office

Also Works:

Casual

Its soft projection and clean floral character make it well-suited for office environments, as noted by community reviews. It's less ideal for formal events or sports, where something bolder or fresher might be preferred.
