Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Very Valentino EDP
A divisive scent for sure: some find it a clean, elegant floral, while others are reminded of bug spray. If you can still get your hands on it, prepare for a hit of nostalgia.
Statement
Our Verdict - Signora EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Very Valentino - a floral fragrance led by Mandarin, Black Currant, with citrus depth. As a budget interpretation it sits lighter and more linear than the designer, but the core signature is there.

Season and Occasion Fit

Very Valentino

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, inoffensive nature and moderate sillage make it ideal for office and casual wear, as many reviewers noted. It's less suited for formal events due to its light, airy feel, and definitely not a sport scent.

Signora

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

Reach for it across spring and summer, where the floral signature sits most naturally; outside those months its softer projection thins out faster.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

This one suits casual and daily settings; the easy, breezy character keeps it versatile for date rotation too.
