Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Curious Eau de Parfum
This is a clean, fresh white floral that's either a pleasant, inoffensive everyday spritz or an alcohol-laden air freshener, depending on who you ask. It's a proper throw-on and go, though probably better suited for younger wearers.

Our Verdict - Musk 12 Eau de Parfum
This is a clean-girl staple for those who want to smell subtly pristine, but don't expect it to turn heads from across the room. It’s a beautifully blended skin scent, perfect for personal enjoyment, though its fleeting performance is a constant source of community angst.

Season and Occasion Fit

Curious Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, inoffensive nature makes it suitable for casual wear and even the office, as many reviews suggest. However, the light projection and body mist format mean it's less ideal for formal settings or a date where more impact is desired.

Musk 12 Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, inoffensive musky and floral accords, combined with its notoriously weak projection and longevity, make it ideal for office or casual wear where a subtle presence is preferred. It's often highlighted as a 'bedtime' or 'fresh out of the shower' scent, further cementing its low-key suitability.
