Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Infusion d'Amande
A truly gorgeous, understated almond musk that's polarising - you'll either adore its clean, subtly sweet cosiness or find it too faint and a bit 'baby wipes'. Either way, it's a comforting scent for you, and only you.

Our Verdict - Shea
The Body Shop's warm-nutty-creamy interpretation of shea butter as fragrance. Almond, vanilla, tonka and a buttery shea-nut core wrapped in soft musk. Reads like a comfort hug rather than a perfume - the close-to-skin gourmand at budget price.

Season and Occasion Fit

Infusion d'Amande

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its intimate sillage and clean, soft character make it ideal for office wear and casual settings where you want to smell put-together without being intrusive. Conversely, its minimal projection makes it less suitable for formal events or sports, where a more impactful scent is often desired. Many reviewers highlight its suitability as a 'bedtime scent' or for 'cozy days in'.

Shea

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A warm, nutty, vanilla-tonka skin scent reads strongest against cold air. Winter is peak; fall close behind. Spring is acceptable for cooler weeks; summer exposes the buttery-nut sweetness as too dense.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Designed as a daily cozy fragrance - excellent for office, errands, post-shower, casual-evening wear. Date wear is acceptable for intimate cozy contexts. Formal settings expect more projection and sophistication; sport is wrong; the scent's strength is wearing close and warm.
