Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, love-it-or-hate-it. This 'sexy pancakes' scent has a cult following who adore its edible warmth and beast mode performance, but it's not for everyone. Some find the maple syrup note overwhelming and artificial, leaning into cloying territory.
A truly gorgeous, comforting amber that's not afraid of a bit of spice and a fresh aromatic kick. It's divisive only because some say its performance is poor, but the scent itself is a hug in a bottle.
