Which Should You Buy?
This is a masterpiece that will polarise. Angelique is a subtle, buttery iris with surprising depth and a quiet luxury that some find magical and others, well, just a bit flat. It's an introspective scent, made for personal enjoyment.
A budget take on Thierry Mugler Angel, that polarising sweet-gourmand icon. Sinless nails the cotton-candy-and-berries opening and the dark patchouli-chocolate-caramel base that made the original a legend, but the dirty, foreboding patchouli reads tamer and it projects more modestly than Angel's room-filling trail.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.
Occasions
Given its intimate sillage and soft, understated character, Angelique is perfect for casual wear or the office where it won't overpower. While romantic and inviting for a date, its light projection makes it less suited for a grand formal event, and it holds no place in an active sports setting.
Seasons
The heavy sweet gourmand of chocolate, caramel and patchouli is made for cold autumn and winter wear.
Occasions
Bold and sensual, it shines on evenings and dates and is too rich for the office or sport.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Sweet, Fruity, Amber accords
