Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Water Lily
A truly gorgeous, understated fresh floral with a delicious hint of watermelon that's adored by all. This one's a definite crowd-pleaser and a perfect choice for those who want a delicate yet distinctive spring-summer scent.

Our Verdict - Bergamot
Roja Bergamot is a divisive citrus. You'll either adore its sophisticated, grown-up take on the fresh bergamot note or dismiss it as overpriced and underperforming. It's truly a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but those who love it, really love it.

Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its fresh and clean profile makes it highly suitable for office or casual wear, although some find its performance too subtle for a full-day commitment. While elegant enough for a formal event, its predominant citrus character might feel too informal for some. Its fresh nature also allows for some sport use, but it's not a dedicated sports fragrance.
