Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Aqua Allegoria Mandarine Basilic EDT
This is summer in a bottle, if summer meant peeling mandarins in a herb garden. It's a proper mood lifter, but be prepared for it to fade faster than your holiday tan. A love-it-or-hate-it basil note makes it divisive, so try before you buy.

Our Verdict - Foresta Magica Extrait
A truly unique green, citrusy fragrance that masterfully balances a vibrant freshness with an intriguing, subtle depth. It's divisive; some love its complexity, while others find it a bit too much or too tart. Experience it for yourself to see if you're in the 'love' camp.

Season and Occasion Fit

Aqua Allegoria Mandarine Basilic

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, light and clean profile makes it perfect for casual wear or sport. While it's inoffensive enough for the office, its fleeting nature might require reapplication, and it's generally too bright for formal events.

Foresta Magica

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, energetic, and slightly unique profile makes it highly versatile for casual wear and suitable for dates. While office-appropriate in moderation, its bolder character might be a bit much for very formal events. The fresh accords also make it a decent choice for sport, though some might find the woody base too heavy.
