Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Potion Eau de Parfum
This discontinued gem divides opinion sharply; some hail it as a masterpiece, a rich, spicy amber with a unique medicinal-boozy twist, while others lament its poor performance and a scent that reminds them of church or cough syrup. Love it or hate it, DSquared² Potion has fervent fans missing its unique charm.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Pepe Jeans for Her Eau de Parfum

Season and Occasion Fit

Potion Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its warm, spicy, and amber profile, combined with generally low projection, makes it ideal for intimate settings like dates and adaptable to cooler formal events. It's too heavy for sport and most offices, though some find it office-appropriate due to its close-to-skin nature.
