Which Should You Buy?
Paradiso Assoluto is a divisive beast: some hail it as a sensual, exotic floral bomb, perfect for a tropical holiday vibe. Others find it an overpowering, sharp mess, barely there, or even headache-inducing. Definitely not a blind-buy.
Chant d'Aromes is a truly divisive Guerlain. Some find it a timeless, comforting classic, while others reckon it's a dated aldehyde bomb best left to grandmothers. You'll either love its vintage charm or find it hopelessly out of touch.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its strong projection and excellent longevity, this fragrance isn't suitable for office wear where subtlety is key. Its sensual and warm character, with a touch of exoticism, makes it an ideal choice for dates and evening events, while its richness can also carry well in a formal setting.
Seasons
A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and often-described 'clean' or 'soapy' character make it suitable for office wear, especially in its later, softer stages. While elegant enough for formal settings, its distinct vintage feel might not appeal to everyone on a date. Many reviewers suggest it's a relaxed, everyday scent.
