Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Peche Cardinal Eau de Parfum
A truly divisive modern classic: Peche Cardinal swings from glorious, juicy peach to synthetic bubblegum depending on who you ask (and to be fair, what kind of peach you are expecting). If you're after a luxurious, clean fruity floral, it might just be your new obsession. If not, best steer clear. The price point is another point of contention, so sample first.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Dreaming Eau de Parfum
Dreaming is a peach-forward floral that's either a fresh, clean dream or a screechy artificial mess depending on your skin chemistry. It's divisive, often discontinued, and leaves a bittersweet nostalgia for its heyday.
