Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ange ou Demon EDP
Givenchy's 'Ange ou Demon' is a truly divisive scent- one sniff and you'll either be captivated by its enigmatic embrace or you'll recoil from its peculiar charm. This is for the bold, not the faint-hearted. It’s a love-it-or-hate-it kind of potion.

Our Verdict - Vanilla & Anise EDC
This one's a proper British conundrum. Some find it a fresh, grown-up vanilla with a unique spicy kick, like a refined confection. Others say it's more medicinal fennel than delicious, with a surprisingly weak performance typical of Jo Malone. A divisive scent.

Season and Occasion Fit

Ange ou Demon

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and unique, polarising character make it unsuitable for office wear, but its alluring depth is perfect for dates and evening events. While some find it versatile for daily wear, its strength and rich accords lean away from casual or sport settings, shining instead in cooler environments.

Vanilla & Anise

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its soft spicy and powdery accords, combined with general community consensus of light sillage and moderate longevity, make it ideal for casual wear and the office. It's a bit too subdued for formal events and not invigorating enough for sport, but could work for an intimate date.
