Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sikkim Girls EDP
Sikkim Girls is a divisive, take-no-prisoners kind of scent; you'll either adore its intense, heady white florals and smoky mystique, or you'll find it an overwhelming blast of 'old-school' perfume. This isn't for the faint of heart, so approach with caution.
Acquired
Our Verdict - State Lady EDP
A budget take on Lush's cult Sikkim Girls, State Lady recreates the heady, creamy white-floral storm of tuberose, frangipani and jasmine over soft vanilla. It captures the sensual, slightly smoky character closely, just a shade less raw and rounded than the Gorilla Perfume original.

Season and Occasion Fit

Sikkim Girls

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Given its strong sillage and potent character, Sikkim Girls is generally too bombastic for office wear. Its "sexual powerhouse" and "sultry" nature make it ideal for dates and special evenings. While too heavy for sport, it can suit casual wear for those who rock bold scents, especially in warmer, humid weather where its tropical facets truly bloom.

State Lady

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

The heady, creamy white florals feel richest in warm and mild weather, suiting spring through autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its sensual, dressed-up character shines on evenings, dates and formal occasions rather than casual daytime.
