Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Alien Sunessence Legere Eau de Toilette
A bright, zesty take on the iconic Alien, this flanker splits opinion: some hail it as a summer miracle, others find the lemon too fleeting or sharp. Don't expect a complete departure, it's still Alien at its core, just with a sunnier disposition.

If you're after a clean, fresh, and elegant scent without breaking the bank, Avant Garde is your shout. It’s got that crowd-pleasing, office-friendly vibe, though some find the drydown a bit dusty. Overall, a solid bet for a versatile everyday fragrance.
