Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Christian Lacroix Nuit Eau de Parfum
This Avon outlier is a fascinating blend of designer aspirations and budget reality, polarising wearers between adoration and outright disdain. Expect a dark, fruity floral with a smoky depth that punches above its price point - if it works on your skin.
Statement
Our Verdict - Golestan Extrait
Golestan is a polarising white floral bomb. Some find it a masterpiece of rich, natural florals with Tauer's signature depth; others get grape soda or overpowering, dusty decay. Definitely one to sample first to see if it sings or screams on your skin.
