Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Eau de Lalique Eau de Parfum

This is a real wildcard that'll divide opinion. If you're looking for a fresh, herbaceous scent that’s a bit unusual, Eau de Lalique is an affordable gem. Just be prepared for the 'pickle juice' comments - though many adore its unique twist.

Our Verdict - Emporio Armani Lui Eau de Parfum

Emporio Armani Lui is a bittersweet symphony - a classic, classy scent that everyone loves, but its modern formulation is tragically fleeting. Once a signature, now a ghost of its former self, leaving a trail of compliments for the lucky few who catch a fleeting whiff, and a lot of frustration for everyone else.

Season and Occasion Fit

Eau de Lalique Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual Sport

Also Works:

Date

Its fresh, mild sillage makes it ideal for office wear and casual outings, offering a refreshing presence without being overpowering. While somewhat versatile, its distinctive herbal character might be too casual for very formal settings, and its 'ethereal' nature doesn't lend itself to high-impact date nights. It excels in hot weather, making it suitable for activity.

Emporio Armani Lui Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:

Office Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

Its clean, inoffensive woody-citrus and powdery accords make it an excellent choice for the office and casual wear, despite its poor longevity. While elegant enough for a date, its weak projection means it serves better in intimate settings than formal ones where a stronger presence is expected. It's not suited for sport due to its lack of energising projection and rapid fade.
