Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Memoir Woman Eau de Parfum
Memoir Woman is utterly captivating and divisive. It's a dark, complex masterpiece for those who dare, but be warned - it challenges and provokes. This isn't a crowd-pleaser; it's a statement.

Our Verdict - Fate Woman Eau de Parfum
A divisive, take-no-prisoners chypre oriental that some declare a masterpiece and others a scrubber. Fans describe it as opulent, rich, and sexy; detractors find it overwhelmingly spicy, medicinal, or even fecal. Love it or hate it, Fate Woman is never boring.

Autumn Winter

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