Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ambre Nue
Ambre Nue is a divisive and often misunderstood amber, praised for its bright, effervescent quality but criticised for its weak projection and lack of typical amber depth. It's an unusual take that some adore and others find rather thin, especially given the price.
Favourite
Our Verdict - The Majestic Vanilla
This one's a confusing beast. Don't expect a straightforward vanilla bomb; it's a divisive blend that some adore for its unique, warm spiciness, while others find it a synthetic, green mess. Absolutely not a safe blind buy.
