Afnan's Mystique Bouquet has everyone in a tizzy. Many hail it as PDM Valaya's fruitier, smoother, and longer-lasting sister. But be warned, this one's a slow burner; it needs time to macerate or you might find yourself with a sharp, synthetic scrubber. Patience, darling, for a clean, feminine, and seriously potent spring-summer delight.

A tropical holiday in a bottle, Voyage Hawaii is a sweet, fruity crowd-pleaser that's absolutely perfect for summer. It's a bargain dupe of some well-loved designer scents, so you can smell expensive without breaking the bank.
