Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, potent, and eye-wateringly expensive, Blue Sapphire demands attention. Many laud its unique, opulent blend, but an equal number are left cold, questioning its originality and astronomical price tag.
Almas by Boadicea the Victorious is a divisive one, beloved for its opulent rose-oud core with a juicy pineapple twist, yet criticised for not bringing anything new to the table at its hefty price point. It's a statement scent, but some say you can find similar for less.
