Our Verdict - Summer by Kenzo Eau de Toilette
A universally adored summer staple, Kenzo Summer is the mimosa queen we all miss. Its sunny, clean, and warm embrace makes it a true cult classic, leaving many desperately searching for a suitable replacement.

Our Verdict - Levant Eau de Parfum
A divisive scent for the modern palate. If you crave that clean, citrus-floral sparkle, you'll love it, especially if you're over Fleur Narcotique. But if you're after something unique, or if certain synthetics grate, approach with caution.
