Which Should You Buy?
Katy Perry's Purr is a divisive one. Many find it a delightful, nostalgic fruity-floral, whilst others deem it a synthetic mess. It's a celebrity scent, so expect playful simplicity and a bottle designed to grab attention.
A pleasant, inoffensive rose-fruity blend that won't turn heads but definitely won't offend. It's a solid, budget-friendly blind buy for everyday wear, though longevity can be a bit of a lottery.

Occasions
Its delicate sillage and inoffensive nature make it perfect for office or casual daytime wear where you don't want to project too strongly. The lack of strong projection and sophisticated depth means it falls short for formal events or dates.
