Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Violette Eau de Parfum
If you love violets, this is a gorgeous, sweet, powdery, yet green take on the floral. It's affordable and generally well-loved, though some find it lacks punch. It's often compared to Guerlain's Insolence but with a fresher, lighter touch. Just be warned about the iffy staying power.

Our Verdict - Ribest Extrait
This one's a crowd-pleaser; a juicy, vibrant berry-floral that's fresh enough for everyday wear but still feels special. Expect compliments and a generally cheerful disposition from everyone around you.
