Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - SPIRIT OF VALENCIA
This one's a divisive beast, not for the faint of heart. Expect a bold, high-performance floral-fruity scent that some will adore and others will find headache-inducing. It's truly a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with no middle ground.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Lover in Bloom
This one's a safe bet for a blind buy, a soft, pleasant floral-fruity that won't offend. It's a reliable, approachable everyday scent that delivers good value.

Season and Occasion Fit

SPIRIT OF VALENCIA

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Summer

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong sillage and 'eternal' longevity, this isn't one for the office, where it could easily overwhelm. It's much better suited for casual outings or dates where its vibrant and unique character can shine, but its powerful floral sweetness might feel a bit much for formal events.

Lover in Bloom

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its soft and pleasant profile makes it perfect for casual wear and the office, as it's unlikely to overwhelm. While it lacks the gravitas for formal events, its gentle fruity-floral notes make it an agreeable choice for daytime dates.
