Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vanilla Diorama Eau de Parfum

Vanilla Diorama is a sophisticated, boozy vanilla that splits opinion. Some herald it a masterpiece of warmth and comfort, while others find its spice and rum notes too overwhelming, even bordering on offensive. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

Our Verdict - Encounter Eau de Parfum

This one is a real head-scratcher. It's a gorgeous spicy boozy gem a lot of us love, but its abysmal performance is seriously frustrating. You'll need to overspray like crazy or accept it as a strictly intimate scent. Don't fall for the marketing hype, though; it won't get you laid.
