Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Blonde Amber Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper debate-starter. Some call it an absolute masterpiece, others say it's just a basic sweet amber that's massively overpriced. If you've got cash to burn and a taste for the luxurious, dive in. Otherwise, sample first, because this ain't for everyone.

Our Verdict - Olibanum Gardenia Parfum
This one's a proper head-scratcher. A genuinely divisive take on incense that some will find an 'ecclesiastical mischief' of tropical joy, while others will be utterly baffled by its 'weird' and 'cloying' contrasts. Don't blind buy unless you're feeling adventurous.
