Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - New York
This one's a cheeky burst of fresh strawberries and citrus, managing to be both easy-going and a bit divisive. Some find it juvenile and synthetic, others swear it's a sparkling, sophisticated summer staple. It's a crowd-pleaser for many, but don't expect groundbreaking complexity.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Firedance
This one's a proper marmite fragrance - you'll either adore its smoky, fiery rose or be running for the hills. Definitely one for the bold, but sample first unless you fancy smelling like a bonfie gone wrong.

Season and Occasion Fit

New York

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh and light profile makes it highly suitable for casual wear and even sport. While some find it too strong for the office, its generally inoffensive nature allows for moderate office use. The youthful and playful scent, however, isn't particularly suited for formal events.

Firedance

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Formal

Its potent, smoky character and significant longevity make it unsuitable for the office where it could overwhelm. It shines brightest on dates or informal evening events, where its mysterious allure can be appreciated without being overbearing. Due to its intense sillage and lasting power, it's a poor choice for casual daytime wear or sports.
