Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Царевна-Лебедь
This one's a proper mixed bag, isn't it? Love it or hate it, many find it unusual for a freshie, shifting from an intriguing juniper opening to a "toilet cleaner" drydown for some, whilst others get abstract aquatic and even coffee. Definitely one to test before buying.

Our Verdict - Ming Shu Fleur de l'Aube
A fresh floral with an aquatic heart, Ming Shu Fleur de l'Aube is a love-it-or-hate-it scent. Some adore its soft, clean vibe, while others find it a bit too sharp or just plain dull. It's divisive, so don't blind buy.
