Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Notorious EDP
Notorious is an absolute chameleon, equally likely to spark adoration as it is disdain. Forget the name, it's a classy, intriguing floral with a surprising gourmand twist that some find divine and others, well, just a bit off.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Babe Dreams EDP
This is a seriously divisive one. Some smell cheap candy, others find it a "heavenly" and potent powdery violet dream that punches well above its weight. Expect compliments or confusion, but never boredom.

Season and Occasion Fit

Notorious

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate sillage and longevity, coupled with its elegant, warm spicy-floral profile, make it suitable for office and sophisticated evenings. However, its distinctive character might be a bit much for casual wear, and it lacks the freshness for sport.

Babe Dreams

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its potent projection and sweet, playful profile make it a standout for casual wear and dates, but potentially overwhelming for a formal or office setting. The long-lasting nature means it endures through most activities, making it suitable for cooler weather casual outings.
