Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Tulip Eau de Parfum
A divisive plum-patchouli combo that's either a dark, sexy stunner or a screechy, synthetic mess. It's unique amongst Nest with some proper gothic vibes, but check your skin chemistry first or risk smelling like an 85-year-old church lady.

Our Verdict - Fatale Eau de Parfum
A divisive scent for sure: some find it a delightful, budget-friendly dupe for popular gourmands, while others cringe at its perceived synthetic sweetness and poor performance. It's either a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, so try before you buy.

Fatale Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its moderate sillage and sweetness make it acceptable for office wear, but most reviews suggest it's best suited for dates due to its sensual character. The sweet, fruity profile lends itself to casual settings, though it might be a bit much for formal events if over-sprayed. It's definitely not a sport fragrance.
