Which Should You Buy?
Afeef is a divisive beast: some find it a delightful, sweet, peachy white floral, perfect for spring, while others recoil from what they perceive as a synthetic, screechy, ambroxan bomb. It really demands you try before you buy, as skin chemistry plays a huge role here.
Valentina is a nuanced, feminine floral-fruity that's sadly been discontinued, leaving many longing for its elegant balance. It's a modern classic striving for subtlety, but its underwhelming performance and unique earthy notes can be a bit divisive.

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.
Occasions
Its delicate and inoffensive nature, coupled with generally moderate sillage, makes it perfect for casual and office wear. While romantic, its subtlety might be lost in very formal settings, and it's definitely not one for the gym.
