Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Eau de Givenchy

A divisive classic that's either a beautiful, fresh chypre or a fleeting, strangely dated floral. If you can find a good vintage bottle, it's a nostalgic trip back to sophisticated spring gardens, but don't expect it to land with everyone.

Our Verdict - Syren

Prepare to be haunted by this one in the best possible way. Syren truly lives up to its name, an intoxicating floral-woody-salty blend that sticks in your mind long after you've first encountered it. Utterly unforgettable.

Season and Occasion Fit

Eau de Givenchy

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

Also Works:

Autumn

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual Sport

Also Works:

Date Formal

Its fresh, clean, and understated character makes it perfect for office wear and casual outings, as many reviewers note its 'soft' and 'inoffensive' nature. While its vintage elegance could suit some formal events, its 'eau' quality means it might lack the intensity for truly grand occasions. The invigorating green and citrus notes mean it's also a surprisingly good fit for sport, offering a fresh uplift.

Syren

Seasons

Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual Formal

Also Works:

Office

Its moderate projection and unique character make it suitable for a range of occasions without being overwhelming. The sensual floral and woody accords lend themselves perfectly to a date night or formal event, while its intriguing freshness stops it being too heavy for casual wear.
