Which Should You Buy?
Queening is a divisive one, hyped to hell but leaving many underwhelmed. Expect a soft, powdery vanilla with a clean, cotton-fresh twist, though some find it synthetic or masculine. At its price point, it's a hard sell for most, failing to live up to the 'niche' expectation in terms of performance or originality.
Lace by Sarah Baker is a divisive beast: one spray and you'll either be reaching for the full bottle or rushing for the scrub. It's a bold, tropical holiday in a bottle that screams for attention, so dial back those sprays unless you want to gas out your mate in the lift.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its generally light projection and moderate longevity, Queening is versatile enough for casual and office wear without being overpowering. The sweet and powdery accords make it suitable for a relaxed date night, but it lacks the gravitas or bold character for formal events.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
With its enormous sillage and impressive longevity, Lace is definitely not an office-friendly scent; it's more likely to annoy than impress your colleagues. It shines brightest on dates and casual outings, especially in warm weather, where its tropical and sensual notes can really make an impact.
