Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L'Eau EDT
A pretty, inoffensive floral that's a crowd-pleaser for sure, but don't expect anything groundbreaking. It's safe, soft, and utterly forgettable for some, a lovely everyday staple for others. Just don't expect it to stick around for long.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Malaysian Water EDP
A breezy budget take on Jimmy Choo L'Eau. Malaysian Water keeps the crisp bergamot-and-peony freshness and juicy nectarine sweetness, but renders it even lighter and shorter-lived than the already-airy original - an easy, inoffensive everyday floral.

Season and Occasion Fit

L'Eau

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, light floral and musky accords, coupled with generally poor longevity, make it ideal for casual wear, office environments, and even sport where a subtle scent is preferred. It's too understated and fleeting for formal events or a memorable date night.

Malaysian Water

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

Its fresh, airy fruity-floral character is built for warm spring and summer days and feels too thin for cold weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Light and inoffensive, it fits casual daytime, daily wear and the office rather than formal or evening settings.
