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 is a seriously opulent floral with a mysterious, boozy sweetness that evokes a sense of nostalgia for some, while others find it thoroughly modern. Perfect for those who want to command attention with elegance.

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 strong projection and enduring longevity make it less suitable for a typical office environment where subtlety is key. However, its sophisticated and opulent character absolutely shines for dates and formal events, leaving a lasting impression. Some reviewers find it versatile enough for daily use, but its intensity lends itself better to special occasions.
