Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Artisan Pure Eau de Parfum
Divisive, yet adored by its fans. Artisan Pure is a hyper-realistic citrus bomb, perfect for scorching days, though its fleeting presence frustrates many. If you want a summer mood-booster and don't mind reapplying frequently, this is a genuine hidden gem.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Vol d'Hirondelle Eau de Parfum
If you're after a juiced-up version of Hermès' Un Jardin en Méditerranée, this is it. While some might find it a bit safe, it delivers a complex, long-lasting citrus hit that's hard to beat and sure to impress.
