Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Dirty Rice Eau de Parfum

This one's a divisive conversation starter. You'll either love its subtle, creamy comfort or you'll be left scratching your head wondering where the 'dirty' rice went. Definitely not a blind buy unless you're a fan of skin scents and are ready for a quiet experience.

Our Verdict - Le Feu D'Issey Light Eau de Parfum

This discontinued gem still sparks fervent love and desperate pleas for its return. A unique, milky-woody blend that's both comforting and distinctly unusual. It's truly a shame it's gone.
