Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cagliari EDP
Cagliari by Alexandria Fragrances is a fresh spicy scent with a balanced presence, fit for both daily wear and special occasions.
Statement
Our Verdict - Carios Extrait
Carios is a deeply divisive release. While some find its fresh, sweet, and spicy profile intoxicating and groundbreaking, others condemn it as overpriced, unoriginal, and even 'revolting'. The consensus is that it's a 'love it or hate it' from PdM, though its exorbitant price tag often tips the scales towards exasperation.
