Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - 900 Eau de Parfum
This one is a seriously divisive piece of kit. You'll either get a gorgeous, potent blast of old-school class, or it'll smell like an elderly relative's bathroom. Love-it-or-hate-it, but if you love it, you'll love it hard for its unique character.

Our Verdict - Rouge Velours Eau de Parfum
This is a bold, velvety rose-patchouli that'll make you feel like 'that girl' - or 'that guy'. It's not a safe blind buy thanks to the prominent patchouli, but for those who love a deep, dark rose, it’s an absolute stunner and a solid example of the genre.
