Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Liaisons Dangereuses EDP
Divisive and somewhat of a chameleon, Liaisons Dangereuses swings between a gorgeous, unique fruity rose and an overpriced, generic shampoo. Some love its sophisticated fruitiness, others find it too sweet, outdated, or just plain boring. Definitely test it on your skin, because this one's a wild card.

Season and Occasion Fit

Liaisons Dangereuses

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its moderate sillage and good longevity, combined with a fruity, sweet, and musky profile, make it versatile but best suited for evenings or casual outings rather than formal settings or the gym. However, some find it too potent for office wear, while others enjoy its freshness in warmer weather.

Dangerous Contact

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Best in autumn and winter - the woody, fruity profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Keep it for evening and daily - the woody accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
