Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Beloved Woman Eau de Parfum

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.

Our Verdict - Under My Skin Eau de Parfum

Francesca Bianchi's Under My Skin is an unapologetically sensual, divisive beast. It's a 'your skin but better' scent for some, a 'sweaty dirty goat' for others. Dive in if you're ready for an animalic, powdery, and deeply intimate experience - it's a masterpiece to its admirers, a migraine to its detractors.

Beloved Woman Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn

Also Works:

Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Its potent projection and extensive longevity make it unsuitable for office wear, but perfect for evenings and special events. The sophisticated, warm spicy, and animalic accords lend themselves well to formal occasions and romantic dates, where a bold statement is desired.

Date

Also Works:

Casual Formal

With beast-mode longevity and projection, this intimate yet assertive scent is too much for the office. It excels in romantic settings, where its sensual, 'after-sex' vibe can be truly appreciated, but its strong animalic profile makes it less suitable for casual or sport wear.
