Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Look EDP
Look by Vera Wang combines a fresh top with a plush heart of lily and jasmine over a comforting sandalwood base, making it versatile for both day and evening wear.

Our Verdict - Smart Look For Women EDP
A budget take on Vera Wang's Look. Smart Look captures the crisp green-apple-and-litchi opening over a white-floral heart and a soft chypre base that defines the original, often likened to a J'adore-style fresh floral, but Perfume Parlour's version reads flatter and a touch sweeter, missing the polished depth of the original's oakmoss-and-musk drydown.
