Which Should You Buy?
A bittersweet symphony for many, Promesse is a much-missed fruity floral that perfectly captured its era. Once a youthful crowd-pleaser, its current inflated price and propensity to turn are a sad reality for those nostalgic for its charm.
Avon Luck is a truly divisive one. Some find it a 'hug in a bottle' of sweet berries and white florals, while others are overwhelmed by a 'synthetic and cheap' saccharine blast. Try before you commit.
