Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - SpellBound Eau de Parfum
This 90s powerhouse is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, SpellBound is pure magic. It's a heady, unapologetic declaration of confidence, though beware the reformulation roulette - the vintage is where the true enchantment lies.

Our Verdict - Rose Alba Eau de Parfum
A divisive blend that draws both adoration and sharp criticism. Some call it glorious and intoxicating, others dismiss it as synthetic and uninspired. Don't blind buy, but if it clicks, it delivers alluring fruit and rose perfection with serious staying power.
