Which Should You Buy?
Pineapple, orange and mandarin so vivid they tingle, then violet, rose and an ozonic clean air, drying to birch and sandalwood. A loud, bright fresh scent that keeps going.
A juicy, fresh-leaning scent that wears long and suits the warm months. Pineapple and citrus fizz up front, a rose and violet heart follows, and oud and birch give the base some grit.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Pineapple, mandarin and ozonic air make it a summer scent first, with spring a close second. The smoky wood base lets it stretch into early autumn.
Occasions
Bright and strong, it is ideal for casual days, sport and the office if applied lightly. It is too loud and fruity for a formal evening.
Seasons
Pineapple, orange and bergamot are warm-weather by nature, so summer comes first and spring second. Winter is outside its range.
Occasions
Fresh and upbeat, so casual days and the gym are natural, and the office works if you go lightly. Not dressy enough for a formal night.
