Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - The Jewel of Desert Extrait

This one's a bit of a gamble, mind. If you're after a lush, sweet fruit cocktail with an earthy edge, it could be your jackpot. But if patchouli rubs you up the wrong way, you might find yourself heartbroken.

Our Verdict - Pleats Please Eau de Parfum

Pleats Please is a divisive little number - a playful, sweet floral that gets some people feeling like flower fairies, and others scrubbing off a cloying, 'bathroom cleanser' vibe. Definitely don't blind buy this one.

Also Works:

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Its sweet, bold nature means it's probably a bit much for the office or very formal events. It shines brightest on dates or casual outings where its fruity, sensual character can truly take centre stage.

Best For:

Spring Summer

Also Works:

Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Office

Its moderate sillage and often-praised "clean" aspect make it suitable for casual wear or even the office if applied sparingly. However, its potent sweetness and the strong floral-fruity character might be too casual for formal events and a bit much for active sports.
