Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Purr EDP
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.

Our Verdict - J'adore EDP
The Essence Vault's interpretation of Dior's J'adore (1999) - Calice Becker's white-floral bouquet that became Dior's defining feminine for two decades, here translated into a budget reading with the magnolia-jasmine-rose-ylang spine still legible. Honest dupe-fidelity for date and evening wear.
