Which Should You Buy?
This is a lovely white floral, safe and inoffensive, if a little 'generic' or 'clean shampoo'. Perfect for those who want a fresh, feminine scent that's elegant without trying too hard, though some find it sharp or 'old ladyish'.
This budget-friendly Armaf offering is pretty but divisive. Some found it a lovely floral citrus for summer, while others felt it was 'screechy' and headache-inducing. It's a bit of a gamble, but if you get a good batch, it's a steal.
