Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Nuits de Noho
This is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, consistently compared to Mugler's Angel, yet often preferred for its supposedly more refined, less sweet character. Expect a hefty patchouli presence; if that's not your bag, best steer clear. It's a bold scent that certainly makes an entrance.

Our Verdict - Vain & Naïve
This one's a divisive fruit bomb. Some find it a 'sexy cougar' vibe, others dub it 'nauseating' or 'basic'. If you're into a morphing fruity-floral with unexpected twists, it's worth a sniff, otherwise, tread carefully.
