Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Infusion d'Ylang
This Prada Infusion is the sunniest of the bunch, a genuinely uplifting take on ylang-ylang that manages to be both tropical and fresh without resorting to obvious 'beach holiday' tropes. It's a crowd-pleaser for those who love yellow florals.

Our Verdict - Zanzibar
This isn't a complex beast, but it doesn't need to be. Zanzibar brings a clean, understated elegance to the table, proving that classic can still feel fresh and utterly wearable.
