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 - Yellow Diamond Intense
This one's a proper debate-starter. Some reckon it's a zesty, long-lasting summer crush, while others find the citrus too sharp or that it turns sour. Love it or hate it, YDI certainly isn't shy.

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.

Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
