Which Should You Buy?
A divisive relaunch, KVD Saint 2017 polarises: some find it a delightful, inoffensive fruity-floral, while others dismiss it as generic and fleeting. This might be a 'love it or leave it' situation, but don't expect it to hang around long enough to make up your mind.
This one's a bit of a grower, apparently. Initially you might get a harsh blast, but give it time, maybe a few months in dark storage, and it blossoms into a fresh, juicy raspberry rose. A crowd-pleaser that punches above its price point.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its gentle sillage and short longevity make it an excellent choice for the office or casual daytime wear, as it's unlikely to offend. However, for dates or formal events, its tendency to fade quickly means it might not leave a lasting impression.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh, fruity-floral character with good longevity and projection makes it suitable for everyday casual wear and dates. While some find it appropriate for the office, its potential strong sillage may make it too prominent for very formal settings.
