Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Love and Tears EDP
This is a fiercely divisive white floral, with some hailing it as a masterpiece of fresh jasmine and others finding it overwhelming or simply 'nice' but overpriced. If you're a devoted white floral fiend, it's worth a sniff.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Green Opening For Women EDP
Green Opening chases Pierre Balmain's Vent Vert - Germaine Cellier's legendary ultragreen chypre floral built on galbanum and crushed leaves. The dupe captures the crisp, leafy-green character but, as some wearers note, drifts toward a softer, sweeter, more fougere-like reading rather than the original's razor-sharp vintage greenness. A pleasant, affordable green floral on its own terms.

Season and Occasion Fit

Love and Tears

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent sillage and longevity make it less suitable for office wear, where it could be distracting. However, its sophisticated floral character and impressive performance lend itself well to date nights and formal events, though it can also be dressed down for casual wear by some.

Green Opening For Women

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The crisp galbanum-green florals are tailor-made for spring and summer, evoking fresh foliage and cut stems, and would feel thin in winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

A refined, leafy-green floral that suits daily, office and casual wear, with enough polish for a daytime date.
