Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Grapefruit EDP
This one's a divisive hit-or-miss. Some rave about its fresh, invigorating citrus kick, while others find it too sharp, too masculine, or just not grapefruity enough. If you're after a pure, sweet grapefruit, look elsewhere. If a complex, aromatic citrus with an unexpected edge sounds good, maybe give it a sniff.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Citrus Drink EDP
Citrus Drink chases Jo Malone Grapefruit's zesty citrus cologne and lands the bittersweet, juicy grapefruit opening well. It reads flatter and fades fast like the already short-lived original, but the fresh, green, lightly spiced character is convincingly there for a budget bottle.

Season and Occasion Fit

Grapefruit

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh and clean profile makes it suitable for office and casual wear, especially given its intimate sillage. However, the often-described masculine edge and lack of sweetness make it less ideal for dates or formal events where a more universally appealing or elegant scent might be preferred.

Citrus Drink

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The zesty grapefruit and green-aromatic freshness are built for warm spring and summer days and feel thin in the cold.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its clean, uplifting citrus character suits casual days, daily wear and the office over formal or evening settings.
