Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Earl Grey & Cucumber EDP
This one sparks strong opinions. Half the room gets a beautiful, sophisticated tea-time dream, the other half just gets a sharp, plasticky mess that vanishes in minutes. Not a safe blind buy, but if it works for you, it's pure magic.

Our Verdict - Insense Ultramarine for Her EDT
Pleasant but unremarkable, Givenchy's Insense Ultramarine for Her walks a well-trodden path. It's perfectly nice, clean, and fresh, but don't expect anything groundbreaking - it simply blends into the background.

Season and Occasion Fit

Earl Grey & Cucumber

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its generally inoffensive and light character makes it ideal for office and casual settings. The divisive reactions and sometimes poor longevity mean it's less suited for dates or formal events where a more robust and universally appealing scent might be preferred. It's refreshing enough for light activity but lacks the punch for serious sport.

Insense Ultramarine for Her

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Its clean, inoffensive nature makes it an ideal pick for the office or casual daytime wear, as noted by reviewers. The moderate performance means it won't overwhelm, but it lacks the distinctive character for dates or formal occasions.
