Which Should You Buy?
A contemporary green floral with subtle woody and musky undertones, Wicked Love offers an unconventional, crisp, and quietly stylish scent for those who prefer their fragrances understated and unique.
Virtuous chases Maison Margiela's Wicked Love - that polarising green bell pepper and basil over jasmine, vetiver and white musk. The vegetal-floral, daring mood comes through, but it renders flatter with softer projection, sketching the original's challenging green edge rather than fully capturing it.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Its crisp green and aromatic character makes Wicked Love ideal for spring and early summer, where the natural freshness shines. It can work in autumn for those who want a green floral lift but feels too light and breezy for the depths of winter.
Occasions
With moderate projection and a clean, non-intrusive green floral profile, it's excellent for office and casual settings. It works on a date for those who appreciate subtlety, but lacks the richness or sillage for formal or sporty occasions.
Seasons
Green, watery and floral facets feel freshest in spring and summer, staying wearable into milder autumn days.
Occasions
Distinctive yet clean, it suits casual days and the office with enough intrigue to carry a date.
