Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Alluring
This one's a real marmite scent. Some find its vintage, dusty plum and resinous character intoxicatingly sexy and sophisticated, while others recoil from what they perceive as 'rotting fruit' and 'medicinal' notes. Test before you commit, this isn't a safe blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Perfumista
A love-it-or-hate-it scent for the true 'perfumista', this one divides opinion with its strong personality. It's a complex, evolving chypre that's been lauded as a masterpiece by some and dismissed as 'old lady vibes' by others. Get it while it's still available.
