Versace perfumes: which one to try first

How to choose between the ten

10ML stocks a wide range from Versace, and this guide covers ten of them: six for men and four for women. Most of the men's scents belong to the Eros family, so the names alone do not say whether you are getting something cool and minty, warm and spiced, or bright and citrus. The women's scents split in a similar way, between fresh daytime florals and one warm scent for night. Buying blind? How to choose perfume without smelling it is a good primer.

The quickest way to choose is by season and time of day:

• Minty and sweet, for cold nights or all year: Eros and Eros Eau de Parfum.
• Warm, spiced and sweet, for winter nights: Eros Flame, also voted for fall, and Eros Najim.
• Citrus for warm days: Eros Energy, and the aquatic Versace Pour Homme Dylan Blue.
• Fresh florals for women, by day: Bright Crystal by Versace, Yellow Diamond by Versace and Versace Pour Femme Dylan Purple.
• A warm, spiced scent for women, at night: Crystal Noir Parfum.

If a note name is unfamiliar, the note pages explain it: vanilla, lemon and tonka bean.
