Which Should You Buy?
Champs Elysees is a divisive but ultimately beloved classic. Most find it a joyous, sophisticated floral that screams springtime in Paris, while a vocal minority can't stand the powdery mimosa, some even detecting an odd cat-piss note. If you're after a happy, light floral, it's a solid shout.
A divisive sister to the original Amethyst, this 'night elixir' pushes berries into boozy, syrupy territory. Expect rich fruit, but be warned, some noses find the opening a bit rough around the edges.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.
Occasions
Its fresh, clean floral accords make it versatile, leaning towards casual and date wear but still appropriate for office given its moderate sillage. The sweet and fruity elements elevate it for romantic settings, while its brightness makes it less suitable for formal, very serious settings or sport.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its potent projection and syrupy sweetness make it less suitable for office wear, but ideal for dates and evening events. The rich, dark berry and woody accords lend themselves well to cooler weather and dressier occasions.
