Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lovestruck EDP
Vera Wang Lovestruck is either a surprisingly sweet and musky floral or a watery, forgettable scent, depending on who you ask or, more accurately, your skin chemistry. It's affordable, pretty, and a safe blind buy, provided you're prepared for its infamously poor performance.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Bewildered For Women EDP
A budget take on Vera Wang's flirty Lovestruck. Bewildered lands the juicy guava-and-mandarin opening over a tuberose-lotus floral heart that makes the original a sweet, fun crowd-pleaser, but the dupe leans a touch sweeter and the soft musky-woody drydown is light - though the original fades fast too.

Season and Occasion Fit

Lovestruck

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its light sillage and poor longevity make it suitable for office wear where it won't offend, and it's frequently cited as a good casual daytime scent. While some find it romantic for dates, its fleeting nature often means it doesn't withstand a full evening, lowering its formal appeal.

Bewildered For Women

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A juicy, sweet fruity-floral that shines in spring and summer warmth; its lightness fades in cold weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Made for casual everyday wear and flirty dates; too sweet and youthful for the office or formal occasions.
