Which Should You Buy?
A quintessentially fresh floral with juicy pear and airy freesia, this is the ultimate everyday fragrance for those who want to smell clean, elegant and quietly radiant.
Rebel Aromas' inspired-by take on Jo Malone's English Pear & Freesia. Forbidden Fruits swaps the crisp, minimal pear-freesia simplicity for a sweeter, louder fruit cocktail, gaining sweetness but losing the original's clean, understated elegance.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Crisp pear, melon, and freesia make this scent supremely fresh and light, perfect for spring and summer. Its airy character is less suited to the cold of winter, but its gentle fruitiness can transition into early autumn.
Occasions
Soft projection and inoffensive freshness make it ideal for office and casual daily wear. It is subtly romantic for a date, but too sheer for formal events or intense enough for sport.
