Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sandal Ruby
Sandal Ruby is a controversial beast: some find it a sublime, spicy-floral-woody dream, while others recoil from its synthetic harshness. It is definitely not a safe blind buy, but if it works for you, prepare to be addicted to its bold, unapologetic character.

Our Verdict - Ottoman
This one's a bit of a gamble, darlings. It's meant to be a warm, spicy dream, but some skins are turning it into pure soap. Approach with caution, a skin test is non-negotiable.
