Which Should You Buy?
Perfume Parlour's budget read of Estee Lauder Very Estee, the modern floral-woody-musk. It captures the dewy freesia-and-rose elegance over soft woods and musk, though it leans a shade sweeter and the airy, delicate quality of the already-light original thins out faster here.
Very Estee is a sophisticated, inoffensive floral, woody musk that's perfect for women who appreciate classic elegance with a modern twist. It is often described as subtle and understated, making it a safe choice for those who prefer a less bold fragrance.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The dewy, green-tinged floral feels brightest in spring and summer with an easy autumn crossover.
Occasions
Refined and unobtrusive, it suits the office, daytime and elegant occasions equally well.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its inoffensive, delicate floral-woody blend makes it highly suitable for office wear, where strong projection is often unwelcome. While elegant enough for formal settings or dates, its subtle nature may be overshadowed by more potent fragrances, and it's too refined for sporty activities.
