Jimmy Choo Illicit Eau de Parfum vs Jimmy Choo Fever Eau de Parfum

Both are sweet, long-lasting Jimmy Choo eau de parfums for women, but they smell different. Illicit is a fruity chypre built on pear, tiger orchid, patchouli and toffee, with a honeyed rose and jasmine heart. Fever is a gourmand floral of grapefruit, lychee and plum over jasmine, heliotrope, vanilla orchid, tonka and sandalwood. Fever scores slightly higher with owners and has more ratings, so it is the safer blind buy for someone who likes fruity gourmands. Illicit suits anyone who wants a warmer, woodsier, patchouli-backed scent for evenings and special occasions.

• Choose the Illicit if you want a fruity chypre with pear, orchid, patchouli and toffee that leans warm and woodsy rather than sugary.
• Choose the Fever if you want a fruity gourmand with plum, lychee, vanilla orchid and tonka that most owners rate highly.
