Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Jeu d'Amour l'Elixir Eau de Parfum
Kenzo's Jeu d'Amour l'Elixir is a divisive one. You'll either find it a sexy, boozy, blackberry jam dream, or a forgettable, overly sweet, cough syrup concoction. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so test it on your skin first.

Our Verdict - Dahlia Divin Eau de Toilette
Givenchy's Dahlia Divin EDT is a crowd-pleasing fruity floral that offers a younger, sweeter take on its EDP sibling. It's often lauded for its surprising potency for an EDT, though some find it a bit too sweet or generic. If you're after a flirty, feminine scent, this one's definitely worth a sniff.

Season and Occasion Fit

Jeu d'Amour l'Elixir Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong sweetness and boozy notes make it unsuitable for an office setting and a poor choice for sport. However, its 'sexy' and 'seductive' nature, frequently mentioned in reviews, makes it ideal for dates and evening formal events, especially in cooler weather where its warmth can shine.

Dahlia Divin Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its sweet, prominent fruity and white floral accords, combined with reports of good sillage for an EDT, make it wonderful for dates and casual wear. It leans too strong for formal office settings, but can be managed with a lighter hand for other professional environments. It's not suited for sport due to its rich, sweet profile.
