Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Narcisse EDP
Divisive, loud, and utterly 90s, Chloe Narcisse is a love-it-or-hate-it explosion of sweet, spicy florals. A true discontinued masterpiece for some, a cloying headache for others.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Rose Nuit de Mai EDP
A creamy, woody rose that evokes romantic nights, this L'Occitane gem is sorely missed by its fans. Many lament its discontinuation, praising its unique blend for elegance and comfort, though some found it too fleeting or cloying.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
