Which Should You Buy?
Nolita is your ultimate fresh, 'clean girl' scent - if you can overlook the contentious price tag and uncanny resemblance to high street body mists. It's divisive, with some critics claiming it's an overpriced 'shampoo-ey' fragrance, whilst fans adore its sweet, juicy, effervescent charm.
A luminous floral bouquet with a citrus spark, Game of Spades Queen is a crowd-pleaser that manages to feel both fresh and elegant. It's a modern classic in the making, universally appealing without being boring.
