Which Should You Buy?
This discontinued Burberry scent is a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a gorgeous, fresh floral, while others dismiss it as an old-fashioned 'nice' perfume. A crowd-pleaser for those who appreciate a classic, tender floral bouquet, but perhaps not for those seeking something truly modern or edgy.
A budget take on Tender Touch. Soft Stroke captures the rich, feminine rose-and-violet bouquet rounded with juicy peach and peony over a soft amber-musk base that defines the original, but Perfume Parlour's version reads a touch flatter and sweeter, with the projection held closer to the skin.
