Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sweet Morphine EDP
Sweet Morphine is a polarising floral that either wraps you in a powdery, luxurious embrace or throws you headfirst into a vintage, soapy nightmare. Love it or hate it, it demands attention.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Life by Kenzo Takada EDP
This Kenzo-Avon collaboration promised much but delivered a divisive experience. Some found it a surprisingly elegant, fresh floral, perfect for daily wear, while others were left baffled by the synthetic opening and generic drydown. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with opinions swinging wildly from budget bang-for-buck to an overpriced misfire.
