Which Should You Buy?
A crystalline, mineral sea breeze in a bottle - Eau des Merveilles Bleue is transparent, bracing, and quietly sophisticated. It is perfect for those who want subtle intrigue and oceanic freshness without sweetness or showiness.
No. 049 copies Valentino Uomo Born in Roma's violet-leaf-and-salt opening fairly closely, but the sage-vetiver base thins out much sooner, losing the smoked, mineral depth that gives the original its identity.
