Which Should You Buy?
This one's a divisive enigma. Some rave about its fresh, fruity sophistication, calling it a summer BR540. Others recoil from a 'plastic' or 'chemical' note, leaving it a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Try it first, then decide if it's your kind of magic or just a headache waiting to happen.
If you're after a sweet, soft, and remarkably similar scent to other Maison Alhambra offerings, this is a safe bet. It's pleasant but utterly unoriginal, so don't expect it to stand out from the crowd.
