Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Fidji EDT
This legendary green floral is a time capsule, evocative of a certain era. Whether it's a nostalgic trip or a fresh discovery, Fidji is a quintessential classic despite reformulations dampening its original strength. A love-it-or-leave-it kind of scent thanks to its distinct vintage vibe.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Far Island For Women EDP
A budget tribute to Guy Laroche's vintage Fidji. The clean, soapy green-floral character with its powdery iris lands recognisably, though Perfume Parlour smooths away much of the original's resinous galbanum complexity.
