Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bas de Soie Eau de Parfum

This one's proper polarising. You'll either get an elegant, aloof green floral with a silky-smooth dry down, or a metallic, funeral-home, egg-custard nightmare. Sample it, then sample it again before sinking your cash, because this ain't a safe blind buy.

Statement

Our Verdict - Alma Blanca Extrait

A truly gorgeous, understated green floral that works for any occasion. It's a crowd-pleaser for those who appreciate refined elegance over shouty modern compositions.
