Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L'Air
A divisive floral that some find heavenly and classy, others a soapy, headache-inducing mess. You'll either adore its airy, powdery grace or recoil at its 'pickle-like' undertones. Definitely not a safe blind buy, for better or worse.

Our Verdict - Attar Al Sheila
This one's a real shapeshifter, leaning into an intriguing mix of fresh florals and a soft, powdery leather base. It’s got that signature Middle Eastern mystique without being heavy-handed, making it surprisingly versatile and a bit of a pleasant curveball for many. Definitely a crowd-pleaser for those who like a floral with a twist.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Its moderate sillage and 'clean' aura make it suitable for office wear, though some find it too strong. It's often described as romantic and elegant, fitting well for dates, and its freshness suits casual daytime use. However, its strong floral and powdery profile might be too much for formal events and certainly for sport.
