Purple Amethyst

Which Should You Buy?
This one's proper divisive. For some, it's a classy, clean floral, but for others, it's a harsh, old-fashioned nightmare of nail polish remover. Try before you buy, unless you're feeling adventurous.
Seriously divisive, Armaf's Purple Amethyst is either a sophisticated, clean floral or a cheap, soapy mess. Many find the rose-iris combo overwhelming and feminine, making it a tricky wear.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.
Occasions
Its strong projection and longevity make it a bit much for casual or office wear, though some find it acceptable in controlled sprays. The unique, often vintage-leaning floral musk makes it suitable for formal events and romantic evenings where a statement is desired.
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.
Occasions
Its delicate sillage and clean, soapy character make it suitable for office and casual wear, even the gym, as some reviewers suggest. It might not stand out for formal events due to its perceived lack of 'oomph' or for dates if strong projection is desired.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Floral, Citrus, Powdery accords and Rose, Magnolia notes
