Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Radical Rose EDP
This isn't a shy little rose, it's a 'badass' statement. Matière Première's Radical Rose is a controversial one-off for some, but a bold, sophisticated masterpiece for many, often hailed as a sexier, more wearable alternative to POAL.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Rose Brut Extrait
A fresh, green take on Matiere Premiere Radical Rose. Rose Brut captures the dewy, natural rose direction reasonably well but is simpler and less crystalline than the original's precise, mono-material rose focus.
