Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Attrape-Rêves EDP
A divisive one, this. Attrape-Rêves is either a 'beast mode' luxurious fruitchouli that epitomises effortless femininity, or an overpriced, generic scrubber indistinguishable from your average Bath & Body Works offering. Don't blind buy; you'll either adore it or utterly despise it.
Statement
Our Verdict - Dream Catcher EDP
Dream Catcher dupes Louis Vuitton's Attrape-Reves, chasing its lychee-peony-cocoa signature. It is sweeter and more straightforward than the original's dreamy, layered composition, with a simpler dry-down, but a fair budget route into that fruity-gourmand floral territory.
