Which Should You Buy?
This is a seriously solid contender in the rose-oud field, offering expensive-smelling depth and longevity without the eye-watering price tag. It's a proper grown-up scent that performs way above its cost.
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Gorgeous, unique blend of saffron and woods, but Jo Malone's usual tricks mean it vanishes quicker than your hopes of finding a full-sized bottle at a decent price. Loved by many, but its shocking performance will have you fuming.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
With strong projection and longevity, this is too much for a typical office setting, but it absolutely shines on a date night or at formal events where its richness can be appreciated. It's also suitable for cooler casual outings, adding a touch of class.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its intimate projection makes it ideal for office wear, avoiding any olfactory assaults on colleagues. While pleasant for dates or casual outings, its poor longevity means it won't last through a full evening, a common complaint among reviewers.
