Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Giorgio Eau de Parfum
This 80s powerhouse is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, Giorgio is pure, unadulterated sunshine and glamour. It's bold, unapologetic, and has everyone talking - just make sure you can handle the attention.

Our Verdict - Rumba Eau de Parfum
Rumba isn't for the faint-hearted. It’s a full-on, unapologetic 80s powerhouse that polarises opinion. Love it for its bold, complex character or hate it for being 'too much' - either way, it leaves an indelible mark.

Season and Occasion Fit

Giorgio Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its famously strong projection and rich white floral accords make it far too overpowering for an office setting where it would undoubtedly cause a commotion. It shines on dates and formal events, particularly in smaller doses, where its luxurious feel can make an impact. For casual wear, it's best reserved for those who truly want to make a statement.

Rumba Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its 'powerhouse' projection and 'monster' sillage, Rumba is definitely not for the office. It's best suited for formal evening events or dates, where its vintage, complex, and 'sexy' nature can truly shine without overpowering. It's too much for casual wear or sport.
