Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lamar EDP
Kajal Lamar is a divisive scent, hyped to the heavens but often failing to live up to expectations. Expect a potent, sweet, fruity, and unapologetically rose-forward blend that either hits just right or completely misses the mark. It's a statement, certainly, but not always the one you're hoping for.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Vanderbilt In Red EDP
A bright, accessible fruity rose that feels modern and playful. It's a safe bet for everyday wear, especially given its budget-friendly price point, and a good option for those seeking a less intense take on popular fruity-rose scents.

Season and Occasion Fit

Lamar

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and lasting power make it less suitable for the office where subtlety is key. It shines on dates and formal events, though, with its luxurious and head-turning character. While too bold for sport, its vibrant fruitiness can suit a lively casual setting, especially in warmer weather when the notes truly project.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
