Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Saint Eau de Parfum
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.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Alive Now Eau de Parfum
This Raspberry and Lychee bomb is a crowd-pleaser for those who love bright, sweet-tart fruitiness. It's affordable, powerful, and a must-try for any fan of fruity florals, though some find it a touch artificial or astringent initially.

Season and Occasion Fit

Saint Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

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.

Alive Now Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its potent projection and sweet, fruity nature make it less suitable for formal or office settings, where it might overwhelm. It's a perfect match for casual outings and dates, particularly in spring and summer, as many reviewers highlight its vibrant and compliment-getting aura.
