Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Melrose Place Eau de Parfum
Melrose Place is the quintessential 'clean girl' scent, a popular but divisive fresh rose that many love for its shampoo-like quality, but just as many dismiss as unremarkable, fleeting, or even sour. It's a crowd-pleaser for some, a headache for others.

Our Verdict - Lyon Eau de Parfum
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Lancome Idole (2019) - pear, rose and musk translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Occasions
Best For:

Sport
Its clean, fresh, and inoffensive profile makes it perfect for office or casual wear, often described as a 'shampoo scent'. However, its generally poor longevity and intimate sillage mean it's not ideal for formal events or dates where you want a stronger presence. It's often recommended for post-shower or gym wear due to its fresh nature.
