Which Should You Buy?
Olympéa takes a swim: rainwater and citrus up top, peach and orange blossom in the middle, salty vanilla and ambergris at the bottom. Cool, with a gourmand twist. Made for hot days and the beach.
Petitgrain and bergamot with a sea-salt aquatic feel, drying to vanilla, cashmere wood and ambergris. Inspired by Paco Rabanne Olympea Aqua, it is a fresh, salty-sweet scent for warm days.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Rainwater, salt and citrus are built for summer; spring suits it too. The aquatic character is wasted in winter.
Occasions
Fresh and noticeable, it suits casual days, beach plans and dates. It lacks the gravity for formal events.
Seasons
The fresh aquatic top and salty-vanilla base make it a quintessential spring and summer scent, fading in the cold.
Occasions
Its fresh, flirty beachy character suits casual daytime wear and easy dates more than formal settings.
