Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Acqua e Zucchero EDP
Skip the cheap dupes, because Acqua e Zucchero is the original sweet treat, masterfully blended. It's a polarizing beast, some calling it a linear sugar bomb while others praise its sophisticated, long-lasting sweetness. If you're after serious sugary vanilla with a side of berries, this is it.

Our Verdict - Summer Yellow EDP
If you're a fan of Libre but not the price tag, this is your jam. Summer Yellow takes that familiar white floral and fruity vanilla combo, cranks up the volume, and stretches out the wear time. A crowd-pleasing, loud number perfect for those who want to be noticed without breaking the bank.
