Which Should You Buy?
Coriandre is a polarising, unapologetically '70s green chypre. Definitely not for the gourmand crowd, but if you're after a sophisticated, timeless scent that stands out, this affordable gem might just be your new obsession.
Don't be a snob - Yardley Lace, especially a vintage bottle, is a hidden gem from a master perfumer. An absolute steal that punches well above its weight, delivering classic feminine charm. The recent reformulations? Best avoided, stick to the real deal.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and autumn.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and 'clean' yet sophisticated aura make it ideal for office wear, being noticeable without overwhelming. Reviewers highlight its elegance and versatility for both formal and casual settings, though its distinct chypre character means it's less suited for sporty activities.
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.
Occasions
Its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, particularly in the EDP and vintage formulations, mean it's best applied lightly for the office, but it shines in more formal or special date settings. The sophisticated floral-mossy profile makes it versatile for a range of dressier occasions, with many reviewers noting its 'day to night' potential.
