Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Coromandel Eau de Parfum

Coromandel is a divisive masterpiece: some find it an elegant, clean patchouli with a gourmand twist, while others get a damp, mouldy blast. It's either an addictive, sophisticated experience or a hard pass, often smelling 'dated' or too 'religious' for some.

Our Verdict - L' Ambree Eau de Toilette

This discontinued gem is a soft, powdery amber that exudes quiet luxury. It's often compared to its stronger Prada Amber sibling, but L'Eau Ambree offers a more intimate, refined experience. The main critique is its 'whisper-soft' projection and longevity, which sadly led to its demise, yet it remains a beloved and sought-after classic.
