Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lime Basil & Mandarin Eau de Cologne

The iconic citrus-herbal cologne that defined a genre. Unmatched for sparkling freshness and breezy, modern elegance, but best enjoyed in close quarters due to its fleeting, subtle presence.

Favourite

Our Verdict - From the Garden Eau de Toilette

A joyful and realistic green scent that captures the sensation of crushing tomato leaves between your fingers, From the Garden is crisp, lively, and perfect for those who crave a natural, outdoor escape.

Season and Occasion Fit

Lime Basil & Mandarin Eau de Cologne

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

Its effervescent citrus, basil, and green herbal notes shine in warm weather, making it perfect for spring and summer refreshment. The light composition can struggle to cut through colder air, so it is less suited to fall and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Date Casual Sport

Low projection and understated citrus-herbal character make it ideal for office, daytime dates, and casual outings, where discretion is key. Its freshness is also great post-exercise or for active wear, but lacks the weight for formal events.

From the Garden Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

Also Works:

Autumn

From the Garden's crisp green and citrus notes evoke the spirit of spring and early summer, making it ideal for fresh, temperate days. The earthy and green heart is less suited for cold winter weather but can transition into early fall.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Date Casual

Also Works:

Sport

Its light projection and refreshing, naturalistic profile make it perfect for casual, daytime, and office wear. It is less suited to formal occasions due to its relaxed, outdoorsy character.
