Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Viola

Viola is a divisive floral-fruity-vanilla, adored by some for its sweetness and depth, while others find it a little too much or reminiscent of popular mainstream scents. Worth a sniff if you enjoy a bold, affordable 'purple' scent.

Our Verdict - Romantica

Romantica is a divisive scent, some finding it a lovely, nostalgic floral with good performance, while others are underwhelmed by its longevity and perceive it as a simplistic, single-note rosewater.
