Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Honey EDP
Divisive and often misleading, Honey by Marc Jacobs misses the mark for many expecting a true honey scent, typically delivering a youthful, fresh, and overwhelmingly floral-fruity experience. It's a love-it-or-hate-it with performance as varied as the reviews.

Our Verdict - Sweetheart For Women EDP
Sweetheart chases Marc Jacobs Honey's sunny pear-and-honey signature. It captures the joyful fruity-floral-gourmand mood on a budget, though it reads a touch sweeter and flatter, with the woody balance of the original slightly dialled back.
