Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Extravagance d'Amarige EDT
This isn't your average flanker. Extravagance d'Amarige is a vibrant, green-floral powerhouse that stands alone. While some find its boldness a bit much, devotees praise its unique, sparkling charm and impressive staying power. A true 90s icon, tragically discontinued.
Statement
Our Verdict - Excess For Women EDP
A vivid green-floral nod to Givenchy Extravagance d'Amarige - marigold and green mandarin over a strawberry-and-orange-blossom heart on woods. Perfume Parlour rounds off the original's sparkly, slightly harsh green opening, landing softer and fruitier but less distinctive.

Also Works:
Office Formal

Its fresh, green, and uplifting character makes it versatile for casual and daytime wear, with a noticeable presence that could be a bit strong for very formal or intensely sporty settings.
