Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sedley EDP
A sparkling, hyper-modern citrus-mint blend with a breezy aquatic twist and soft woods underneath. Sedley is the definition of crowd-pleasing versatility for anyone seeking a signature fresh scent with niche polish.

Our Verdict - Philosia EDT
This one's a divisive beast. Some adore its fresh, green forest vibes, while others reckon it smells like stale bathroom cleaner. If you can get past the lacklustre performance, it's a unique scent that might just transport you. Others? They'll just smell hand soap.

Season and Occasion Fit

Sedley

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

The citrus, mint, and aquatic notes make Sedley exceptionally suited to spring and summer, offering cooling freshness and lightness. Its aromatic-woody undertone lends some versatility for mild autumn days, but it lacks the warmth or heft for cold winter wear.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Sedley's clean, sparkling freshness makes it perfect for casual and office settings where a bright, non-intrusive scent is preferred. Its moderate projection is safe for professional and day-to-day wear, but it may lack the gravitas for formal occasions.

Philosia

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh and clean profile makes it suitable for casual wear or after a workout. However, its poor longevity and moderate projection limit its suitability for more formal or date settings, where it quickly becomes a subtle skin scent.
