Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Run Of The River

This is a captivating green aromatic that evolves beautifully on the skin. It's not a safe blind-buy for everyone, given some find the oakmoss a bit much, but if you're after something fresh and elegantly complex, it's a winner.

Our Verdict - Mandarin & Mint

Don't let the name Mandarin & Mint fool you; this one's a divisive brew. Reviewers reckon it's a citrus cleaning product in a bottle and doesn't last, calling it a huge disappointment. Approach with caution, as it might be a big swerve.

Seasons

Best For:

Summer

Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual Sport

Also Works:

Date

Its fresh, airy, and uplifting profile, combined with moderate longevity and sillage, makes it perfect for daytime wear in the office or casual settings. While too subtle for many formal events, its unique character could shine on a relaxed date.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Sport

Also Works:

Casual

Given the 'lemon cleaning fluid' comparison and poor reported longevity, it's best suited for casual wear or perhaps the office if you prefer something light and unobtrusive. Its fresh, clean profile makes it suitable for sport, but its lack of projection means it won't stand out on a date or at a formal event.
