Which Should You Buy?
A fiery, carnal jasmine laced with spice and velvet petals, Jasmin Rouge is the definition of sultry opulence. Not for the shy, this statement floral is a heady, hedonistic embrace that leaves a lasting impression.
A budget take on Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb Rose Explosion. The big spicy-rose heart of Turkish and Moroccan rose over warm amber, vanilla and oud captures the original's lush oriental-rose burst; this dupe flattens some of the rose absolutes' honeyed depth and gives up some of the original's heavy projection.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Jasmin Rouge shines in spring and fall when its rich spicy florals and warming amber feel most natural, but its opulence and depth also make it a bold, sensual choice for winter evenings. In summer, the intensity might overwhelm in the heat, though it can work for cooler nights.
Occasions
This is a seductive and statement-making scent best reserved for romantic settings, special occasions, or formal events. Its bold spicy floral heart is too assertive and sensual for the office or athletic wear.
Seasons
The rich spicy-rose-amber-and-oud oriental is at its best in autumn and winter and into spring, feeling too heavy for hot summer days.
Occasions
A bold, sensual oriental-rose built for evenings, dates and dressier occasions; its richness is a lot for the office or sport.
