Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ambre Vanille EDP
This revamped favourite is a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a delightful, subtle gourmand, while others are gutted it's not a patch on the original. Expect a gentle, clean sweetness, but don't hold your breath for beast-mode performance.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Harajuku Lovers Sunshine Cuties G EDT
A divisive little number, Harajuku Lovers Sunshine Cuties G is for those who adore creamy coconut and vanilla, but some find it a touch too much or not enough. Don't expect a power-player, but it's a solid holiday spritz for the right wearer.

Season and Occasion Fit

Ambre Vanille

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its gentle sillage and clean, inoffensive profile make it suitable for close-quarters like the office or casual wear. However, its understated nature means it won't shine for formal events or demanding physical activity.

Harajuku Lovers Sunshine Cuties G

Seasons

Best For:
Summer

A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its sweet, tropical coconut and vanilla profile, combined with generally poor longevity, makes it ideal for casual, relaxed settings. It's too informal and light for formal events, and while pleasant, its sweetness isn't quite right for an office environment.
