Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Nio Eau de Parfum
Nio is a divisive citrus-green powerhouse. For some, it's the ultimate refined summer freshie; for others, an overpriced cleaning product. Expect sharp, photorealistic green notes.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Rosabotanica Eau de Parfum
This isn't a demure rose, it's a wild, untamed garden. Rosabotanica is a divisive but much-loved green-spicy-woody floral that manages to be both unique and universally missed since its discontinuation. It's an acquired taste, but once you're in, you're obsessed.
