Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Tangy Rhubarb Cologne EDP
A bright, zesty rhubarb blast that's wonderfully fresh for about 20 minutes before it vanishes. Jo Malone's Tangy Rhubarb is a joyous, albeit fleeting, summer spritz. Love its unique character, but prepare to reapply constantly.

Our Verdict - Consolation EDP
A budget take on Lush's The Comforter. Consolation captures the snuggly blackcurrant-cassis heart lifted by bergamot and grounded with cypress that defines the cult Lush original, and wearers who own both report it lands very close at first spray, with the budget version holding up surprisingly well in longevity.
