Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Scandal Intense EDP
A voluptuous, scandalously sweet floral gourmand with a creamy vanilla core and spicy edge that commands attention and leaves a lingering, decadent trail.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Zadig EDP
This one's a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a delightful, creamy vanilla dream with a spicy kick, while others are less impressed, calling it unoriginal and battling with a prominent, divisive sesame note. Approach with an open mind, but don't expect groundbreaking magic.

Season and Occasion Fit

Scandal Intense

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

The creamy vanilla and spicy floral heart make this ideal for the colder months and autumn, while the sweetness and intensity can be cloying in hot weather but are inviting in cool spring evenings.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its bold, enveloping sillage and sweet creamy profile are best for date nights or formal events where you want to leave an impression. The intensity and sweetness are not office or gym friendly.

Zadig

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office
