Which Should You Buy?
This one's a bold-as-brass, dark rose and plum affair. It's got serious staying power and a seductive aura, but some folks find it a bit too much, almost 'bugspray-ish' in the opening. It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of intense, so don't blind buy.
A modern chypre that manages to be both classic and contemporary. This is a classy, grown-up scent for those who appreciate depth over fleeting sweetness, though some find it a tad too much, or not enough, depending on their skin chemistry.
