Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Santal Complet Eau de Parfum
Santal Complet is a truly gorgeous scent - a creamy, comforting sandalwood with a tropical twist - but its abysmal performance and high price render it a controversial choice. Many adore the smell but struggle with its fleeting nature and skin-scent projection.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Silver Ombre Eau de Parfum
A truly gorgeous, refined amber-rose that manages to be both ethereal and warm. It's an absolute steal if you can find it at the right price, with many saying it punches well above its weight. Not everyone picks up the fruit, but if you love a jammy, spicy rose, this is for you.
