Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Romance Reverie
A red-fruits and lychee opening over a peony-jasmine heart with a soft cashmeran-musk close, Romance Reverie is a polite spring and summer fruity-floral built for daytime wear. Effortless, feminine, accessible.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Byzance Gold
This 'fruitchouli' is a divisive one. Initially sharp and sometimes 'screechy', it develops into an addictive fruity rose with plenty of patchouli depth. Definitely one to try before you buy, but for some, it's a delightful journey.

Season and Occasion Fit

Romance Reverie

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

Red fruits, lychee, and peony lift this firmly into spring and summer, with cool autumn evenings as backup. The light musk-cashmeran base lacks the warmth for winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Polite, intimate fruity-floral fits office, casual day, and dates effortlessly. The soft sillage keeps it appropriate for closer settings; lacks the projection for formal evenings or sport.

Byzance Gold

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

With moderate projection and longevity, this makes an excellent choice for dates or formal evenings where its rich, complex character can shine without overwhelming. Its initial sharpness and underlying fruitiness make it less suitable for professional or casual sporty settings.
