Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Mimosa & Cardamom EDC
This one's a proper Marmite scent - you'll either adore its warm, powdery mimosa charm making it an 'uncommon crowd-pleaser' or find yourself battling an unexpected 'baby wipes and disappointment' vibe. It's sunshine and spice, but for some, just spice.

Our Verdict - Boum Metal EDP
This one's a proper mixed bag. Some find it a pleasant, if basic, powdery vanilla, while others are utterly repulsed. Don't expect a ground-breaking scent, but for the price, it might just surprise you.

Season and Occasion Fit

Mimosa & Cardamom

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its soft sillage and calm demeanour make it perfect for casual wear and office settings where it won't offend. However, a divisive 'body lotion' or 'baby wipes' feeling, along with limited longevity for some, makes it less ideal for formal events or sports.

Boum Metal

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its generally inoffensive nature, described as 'linear' and 'rudimentary' by some, makes it suitable for casual wear and the office, where a less 'penetrant' scent is often preferred. The 'shower gel' vibe suggests suitability for sports, but the lack of strong projection and longevity reduces its impact for formal or romantic occasions.
