Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper head-turner, but definitely not a blind buy unless you live for sharp, potent violet. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair; some find it a masterful, unique floral, while others can't stand its intense, screechy greenness.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Oceania. Built around Bergamot, Grapefruit, Lemon, it offers the character of the original at a budget price - a wallet-friendly alternative for fans of Oceania.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its exceptional projection and longevity make it a bit much for the office unless applied very sparingly. However, its sophisticated and attention-grabbing floral character is perfect for dates and formal events, leaving a memorable sillage. It also works well for casual wear where you want to make a statement.
Seasons
Best in spring and summer - the citrus, amber profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.
Occasions
Keep it for casual and daily - the citrus accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
