Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Blue Sapphire EDP
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.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Floral Explosion EDP
A floral burst that's not afraid to make a statement, perfect for anyone who loves an unapologetically feminine scent. This one's definitely a crowd-pleaser for those who enjoy classic white florals.
