Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vanille Leather
BDK's 'Vanille Leather' is a divisive one. Many find it a plush, powdery violet-vanilla dream with a buttery suede kiss, perfect for cosy nights. Others are utterly bewildered, sniffing a 'floral mess' with no leather or vanilla in sight. You'll either adore its sophisticated warmth or wonder if you've been sold a completely different perfume.

Our Verdict - Attar Al Sheila
This one's a real shapeshifter, leaning into an intriguing mix of fresh florals and a soft, powdery leather base. It’s got that signature Middle Eastern mystique without being heavy-handed, making it surprisingly versatile and a bit of a pleasant curveball for many. Definitely a crowd-pleaser for those who like a floral with a twist.
