Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Luce di Rosa EDP
A clean, fresh rose that balances its florals with spicy and woody depth. It's a 'quiet luxury' scent, but some reckon it's a bit too pricey for what you get.

Our Verdict - Alien Aqua Chic EDT
This flanker is a divisive one: some find it a delightful, fresher take on the original Alien, perfect for warm weather. Others argue it's just a watered-down version, lacking the distinct Alien magic. Expect a lighter touch, but don't expect it to stray too far from the familiar.
