Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - HM
This 90s gem is a divisive one. For some, it's a nostalgic, unique gourmand citrus with amazing performance. For others, it's a synthetic mess, too feminine, or just a sweet lemon bomb. Give it a whirl if you like a playful surprise, but probably not a safe blind buy.

Our Verdict - Confident
Skip this one. Despite the name, there's nothing particularly 'Confident' about it; just a muddled, thyme-heavy aroma that fails to create any intrigue or pleasantness.

Season and Occasion Fit

HM

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

HM is best suited for casual and date settings due to its noticeable sweetness and gourmand leaning, making it potentially too strong for formal events or the office. Its performance can be quite robust, which, while great for socialising, limits its versatility for more discreet situations.

Confident

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Also Works:
Casual

Its unusual, somewhat jarring profile isn't really suited for formal or intimate date settings. Given the general consensus on its strong herbal opening, it's best kept casual or avoided entirely for public wear.
