Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair, polarizing opinions between 'masterpiece' and 'old-fashioned mess'. You'll either adore its complex, classic charm or find it too dated; there's no middle ground here.
Passion is properly divisive: a beastly, gothic powder-bomb, beloved by those who want to smell dark and mysterious, but completely overwhelming for others. Definitely a 'try before you buy' to see if you're a vamp or a victim.
