Fig & Lotus Flower Eau de Parfum vs Byredo La Tulipe Perfume Oil
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This aquatic floral is a polarizing pick-me-up. Some find it a refreshing, clean fig, perfect for hot days. Others, however, are put off by its green or citrusy facets, leading to a 'love it or leave it' divide. Expect Jo Malone's usual fleeting performance.
Delicate and elegant, Byredo La Tulipe captures the essence of fresh floral bouquets, making it a delightful choice for spring and summer wear.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its clean, fresh aquatic-floral profile and intimate projection make it ideal for office and casual wear, as it's unlikely to offend. While not quite refined enough for formal events, its refreshing qualities are perfect for summer and active use, though some may find its longevity an issue.
Seasons
The floral and fresh characteristics of La Tulipe make it ideal for spring, mirroring blooming flowers. It can also fit well in summer due to its lightness but lacks the warmth needed for winter.
Occasions
La Tulipe's gentle florals and moderate projection are suitable for office wear and daytime dates where a subtle but present fragrance is appreciated. Its elegance suits a range of events but is less iconic for sporty or extremely formal occasions.
