Which Should You Buy?
This flanker is Marmite-esque-ly divisive. Some adore its gourmand coffee-vanilla twist on the original, calling it a 'powerhouse' of 'magic'. Others find it synthetic or fleeting, claiming the promised notes vanish too quickly.
Heraud is a divisive gourmand. Either it's a perfectly balanced, realistic chocolate and dried fruit dream, or it's a synthetic, dusty, chalky concoction that's far too sweet for its own good. An acquired taste with a loyal following, but definitely try before you buy.

Its sweet, gourmand profile and moderate longevity make it ideal for dates or casual outings where an intimate, inviting scent is preferred.
