Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vetiver Sensuel
This one's a fresh, uplifting take on vetiver. While some find the vetiver a bit shy, this citrus-forward scent is a crowd-pleaser for good reason, offering easy-wearing sophistication and undeniable appeal for warm weather.

Our Verdict - Mandarine Glaciale
This one's a divisive marmite of a fragrance: some adore its bracing, fresh take on citrus, while others find it veers into 'curry powder and celery' territory. Definitely sample before you splurge, as skin chemistry plays a huge role here.
