Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Romance EDP
A timeless floral-musk that radiates airy elegance and femininity. Perfect for spring days, Romance is the essence of clean, polished confidence with a soft, intimate touch.
Favourite
Our Verdict - 560 Romantic EDP
A lighter, more transparent take on Ralph Lauren's Romance. The rose-violet heart is softer and less dewy here, the oakmoss-musk base thinner, and the whole composition reads as a fleeting, 2-3 hour whisper rather than the original's warm, hours-long musky sillage.
