Which Should You Buy?
This is a seriously sensual, heady floral that's either a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect rich jasmine and ylang-ylang with a woody embrace; if you're after something a bit 'extra', you've found it, just be mindful of the projection for daytime wear.
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.
