Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Royale Exclusif Extrait
This one's a wildcard. While it opens fresh and promising, a strong medicinal, chemical drydown means it's not going to be for everyone. You'll either love how it develops or find yourself reaching for something else entirely.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Smeralda Extrait
This one's a bold move for sophisticated evenings. If you like your scents boozy, leathery, and dark, Smeralda offers a complex, unapologetically sexy experience that leans into its Italian luxury roots. Not for the faint of heart, but undeniably captivating.
