Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Iris Silver Mist Eau de Parfum
This isn't a perfume for the faint of heart; it's a divisive masterpiece, lauded by some as artistic genius and dismissed by others as wholly unwearable. Expect unique, challenging facets and a love-it-or-hate-it reaction.
Statement
Our Verdict - Santal des Indes Eau de Parfum
This is a seriously divisive sandalwood; some find it a masterful, unique take on woody notes, while others find something distinctly 'off'. Expect a bold, confident scent that isn't for everyone, but those who love it, really love it. Not a safe blind buy.
