Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Dali
This is a seriously polarising scent: some find it a sexy, boundary-pushing masterpiece, while others are put off by its intensity. It's a grand, dramatic fragrance strictly for those who dare to be different and shun anything remotely 'inoffensive'.
Acquired
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.
