Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Valentina EDP

Valentina is a nuanced, feminine floral-fruity that's sadly been discontinued, leaving many longing for its elegant balance. It's a modern classic striving for subtlety, but its underwhelming performance and unique earthy notes can be a bit divisive.

Favourite

Our Verdict - Perle Royale EDP

A divisive one, this. Most reviewers agree it's a solid, budget-friendly 'La Vie Est Belle' vibe, perfect for those who enjoy sweet floral gourmands. But a vocal minority absolutely detest its artificial sweetness and harsh opening. Tread carefully with a blind buy, but for its fans, it's a steal.

Season and Occasion Fit

Valentina

Seasons

Best For:

Spring

Also Works:

Autumn Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

Its delicate and inoffensive nature, coupled with generally moderate sillage, makes it perfect for casual and office wear. While romantic, its subtlety might be lost in very formal settings, and it's definitely not one for the gym.

Perle Royale

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Spring

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Date

Also Works:

Casual Formal

Its potent sweetness and floral-gourmand character make it less suitable for the office. It shines on dates and in casual evening settings where its alluring warmth can be fully appreciated. Some find it strong, suggesting it's best for cooler weather, limiting very casual or sporty wear.
