Which Should You Buy?
Salome is a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it animalic chypre that demands attention. It's a modern classic for those brave enough to wear something truly carnal and vintage-inspired.
This one's a proper beast, a true love-it-or-hate-it classic that divides opinions. Some reckon it's a masterpiece, others get 'old woman' or 'horse s**t', but everyone agrees it's bold and distinctly Chanel. Don't expect subtlety; this is pure, unadulterated vintage glamour.
