Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Kumkat Wood Eau de Parfum

Kumkat Wood is a divisive one, a chameleon that shifts from a 'masterpiece' to 'grandma smelling' depending on who you ask. It's a citrus-wood punch with surprising elegance that either sings on skin or falls completely flat.

Our Verdict - Aqua Memorabilis Eau de Parfum

This Jovoy release is sending out mixed signals, making it a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. Some reckon it's a stellar, grown-up citrus for summer, while others are left scratching their heads, calling it generic or even a bit nasty. Definitely one to try before you buy, if you want to avoid a shocker.

Date

Its versatile citrus and woody profile makes it suitable for most casual and office settings, as many reviews suggest an 'all-rounder' quality.
