Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, dark, and utterly unique, Decadence was Marc Jacobs' boldest move, delivering a luxurious plum and woody punch that you either adore or recoil from. Its discontinuation leaves a passionate fanbase in mourning for this unapologetically fierce fragrance.
A reasonably faithful dupe of Marc Jacobs Decadence, keeping the plum-saffron-rose signature but with a lighter, less syrupy amber base than the boozy, leather-tinged original.
