Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Femme Eau de Parfum
This one is a divisive gem, offering a clean, 'icy' freshness that some adore for its unique, almost futuristic vibe, while others find its fleeting nature and masculine leanings a bit too much to handle. Definitely not a blind buy.

Our Verdict - The Beat Eau de Toilette
This EDT is a fresh, clean, and utterly inoffensive crowd-pleaser, perfect for those who found its EDP counterpart too intense. Its main drawback is its weak longevity, leading to widespread disappointment among fans who wished this beautiful scent lingered longer.
