Which Should You Buy?
Mad Love splits opinions, but if you're after a sweet, fruity, creamy escape that punches above its weight for the price, this little number delivers a delicious strawberry-coconut dream. Just don't expect it to last all day unless you're reapplying.
A divisive fruity-floral, Taylor Swift's 2013 offering is either juicy apricot bliss or an overwhelming synthetic mess. It's got fans for its nostalgic charm and longevity, but for many, it's just not hitting the high notes.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its sweet and fruity nature, combined with generally moderate projection and longevity (though this is disputed), makes it a great pick for casual wear. It's too youthful and perhaps overtly sweet for formal settings or professional office environments, but could be a fun choice for a laid-back date.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
While some enjoy its wear in the summer, its moderate sillage and lasting power, combined with its sweet and fruity profile, make it more suited for casual outings or dates. It leans too informal and potentially too strong for office or formal settings. Many mention it as a great daytime or summer scent.
