Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cat Deluxe Eau de Parfum
A divisive scent that evokes strong nostalgia for some and strong dislike for others. It's a playful, sweet-spicy ride - perfect for those who embrace its unique, sometimes challenging, character.
Statement
Our Verdict - Elysée Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper grown-up fragrance, leaning into classic floral chypre territory. Some find it elegant and sophisticated, even addictive, but others are left cold, finding it too serious or cloying. Definitely not for the faint-hearted or those who prefer a light touch.

Season and Occasion Fit

Cat Deluxe Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Autumn

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

With its noticeable sillage and warm, spicy character, Cat Deluxe is best suited for social settings rather than the office. Reviewers often mention it as a "clubbing perfume" or for drawing compliments on dates.

Elysée Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With strong floral and musky accords, alongside reviews praising its formality and intensity, this scent is best suited for formal occasions and dates. It's likely too rich and persistent for casual wear or the office, and definitely out of place for sport.
