Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pulp EDP
Byredo Pulp is a wildly divisive fragrance, a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect an unapologetically bold, jammy fruit explosion that some find intoxicatingly unique, while others recoil from its 'overripe' or 'rotten' quality. It's a true masterpiece for those who get it, a scrubber for those who don't.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Betsey Johnson EDT
A divisive yet distinctive noughties fruit-gourmand throwback, this is for those who embrace an unapologetically sweet, playful, and slightly chaotic energy. Expect compliments, or confused stares, depending on who's catching the sillage.
