Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Champs Elysees Eau de Toilette

Champs Elysees is a Guerlain 'modern classic' with a divisive charm. While some swoon over its sparkling floral and fruity embrace, others find it a dated, even 'boring' concoction, particularly with newer formulations. Best for those who appreciate a nod to 90s sweetness.

Our Verdict - Hummingbird Eau de Parfum

Hummingbird is a divisive floral-fruity, celebrated for its unique blend but often criticised for veering into 'old-fashioned' or 'soapy' territory. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that evokes strong opinions, proving it's anything but forgettable.

Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Office Formal

This EDT's generally moderate sillage and 'light' to 'subtle' nature make it wearable for many settings, though some find it can project strongly. Its romantic floral and fruity character leans heavily towards date nights and casual spring/summer outings, while its elegance suits daytime formal events. However, its sweetness and projection can be too much for a confined office environment and is entirely unsuitable for sport.

Hummingbird Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Its potent projection and longevity, combined with a very prominent floral sweetness, make it less ideal for office settings. However, its vibrant character is perfect for casual spring and summer days and can add a playful, romantic touch to a date, though some find it too 'loud' for intimate encounters.
