Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Warm Bulb
Prepare to have your assumptions about fragrances challenged. Warm Bulb is a divisive, genuinely peculiar scent that nails its concept with uncanny accuracy. It's an atmospheric journey some will adore, while others will find it utterly unwearable. This is artistry in a bottle.
Statement
Our Verdict - Soir
This Grand Soir dupe is a bit of a gamble upon first spray, with maceration reportedly unlocking its true potential. Expect a rich, cozy amber experience that's a steal for the price, provided you can be patient.
