Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, to say the least. Many are calling this Lattafa's biggest bait-and-switch: starts feminine, but often dries down into something surprisingly masculine. It's truly a "your mileage may vary" pick, with many feeling completely duped.
R.E.M. is a divisive, quirky lavender gourmand that manages to be both sweet and salty. While many find it comforting and unique, some struggle with its unusual blend, likening it to anything from laundry detergent to an old aftershave. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
