Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Si Eau de Toilette
This EDT flanker is a divisive one, splitting opinion between those who find it a lighter, fresher take on the original, and those who feel it loses the EDP's magic, becoming generic. It's discontinued now, much to the chagrin of its ardent fans.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Florence Eau de Parfum
Florence is a divisive powerhouse. Its boisterous blackcurrant and patchouli combo means you'll either adore its bold, sensual sillage or find it overwhelmingly synthetic and a bit 'old lady'. Definitely not a Wallflower's fragrance.

Season and Occasion Fit

Si Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer Autumn Winter

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its lighter nature and moderate strength make it suitable for office wear and casual outings without being overwhelming. While it can be worn on dates, some find it lacks the gravitas for formal events, preferring a bolder scent.

Florence Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its nuclear sillage and exceptional longevity, Florence isn't suited for office wear, where it might overwhelm. It excels in date night and formal settings, where its rich, confident aroma can truly shine, but it's too much for casual or sportwear.
