Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - All About Eve
This one's a proper trip down memory lane for many. It's a cheerful, fruit-forward scent, mostly green apple and vanilla, but be warned: some reckon it's a nostalgic gem, others call it a candle or kids' shampoo. Longevity is a real coin toss, so prepare to re-spritz.

Our Verdict - Before For Women
A budget take on Joop! All About Eve. Before reproduces the distinctive apple-cinnamon-vanilla fruity-oriental signature, but the chief shortcoming is the same weak longevity that bothers some of the original's fans, made a touch lighter still.
