Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Jeu d'Amour l'Elixir
Kenzo's Jeu d'Amour l'Elixir is a divisive one. You'll either find it a sexy, boozy, blackberry jam dream, or a forgettable, overly sweet, cough syrup concoction. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so test it on your skin first.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Pink Sugar Creamy Sunshine
A truly divisive flanker - some find it a delightful, creamy, tropical evolution of the OG Pink Sugar, while others are repulsed by what they describe as synthetic sunscreen or cleaning product. Definitely not a safe blind buy, as it morphs significantly on different skin chemistries.
