Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pleats Please EDT
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.
Favourite
Our Verdict - La Charmante Eclatant EDP
This is a seriously potent, jammy rose beast, a love-it-or-hate-it scent that commands attention. Expect a powerful fruity-floral explosion that leans distinctly feminine, offering incredible value for its impressive longevity and sillage.

Season and Occasion Fit

Pleats Please

Seasons

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.

La Charmante Eclatant

Seasons

Best For:
Spring

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its exceptional longevity and strong projection make it less suitable for office environments where subtlety is preferred. However, its feminine, intoxicating aroma is perfect for dates and evening events, and versatile enough for casual wear if applied lightly.
