Which Should You Buy?

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.

Our Verdict - Victoria’s Secret Angel Gold
This one's a divisive citrus-floral with a musky drydown. Some call it a sophisticated, sparkling treasure, while others detect a synthetic 'air freshener' or even 'pickle' vibe. If you love a fruity-floral shampoo-like freshness, it's worth a try, but be warned, some find it a bit too 'old' or headache-inducing.

Victoria’s Secret Angel Gold

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Its fresh, clean character makes it suitable for casual wear and can work well in an office setting if applied sparingly. The underlying warmth and sensuality also make it a decent choice for dates, but it lacks the gravitas for formal events. While fresh, it's not a dedicated sport scent.
