Which Should You Buy?
Aura is a charming, easygoing floral with a juicy blackcurrant opening and soft musky-vanilla drydown. Effortless, breezy and quietly optimistic, it is a perfect everyday scent for spring and summer.
A powerhouse floral that's either a budget-friendly delight or an overpowering blast from the past. Widely considered an excellent dupe for Givenchy's Amarige, its impressive longevity and projection come with a caveat: a heavy hand will leave you swimming in a sea of 80s/90s floral intensity.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Bright fruits, fresh florals and light musks make this best suited for spring and summer when airiness and gentle sweetness are ideal. Lacks the warmth and depth for cold winter days.
Occasions
Soft projection and a clean, uplifting floral profile make this ideal for office and casual wear. Its breezy transparency is pleasant for dates but too light for formal evening occasions.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and substantial longevity, Susan is not ideal for the office where it could be overwhelming. It shines on dates and formal occasions due to its elegant floral character, but its intensity means it's best applied lightly for more casual settings. It's much too heavy for sport.
