The short answer
Choose by how the scent should feel: fresh and aquatic for daytime and summer, warm and creamy for the office and evenings. Forwills Aurora (aquatic citrus, marine, white musk, light floral) is the freshest; Ethereal (sandalwood, warm spice, vanilla) is warm and creamy. Both are 100 ml unisex Eau de Parfums.
