Which Should You Buy?
A divisive but much-loved B&BW hit, Fairytale promises enchanting florals and amber warmth. Many proclaim it a high-end dupe for YSL Libre, but others find it too sweet or even headache-inducing. Its enchanting longevity, particularly for a mist, has created a cult following.
Divisive, creamy white Floral that some will adore as a heady tuberose bomb and others will find merely okay, lacking the specific punch they expect. Don't blind buy; this one demands a test drive to see which camp you fall into.
