Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - the Fragrance
This is a divisive one. For some, it's a 'basic' fruity floral that's a bit too soapy or synthetic. But for its fans, it's a dependable, crowd-pleasing blend of sweet fruit, soft rose, and a touch of suede that lasts and lasts.

Our Verdict - Hope
Hope is a divisive clone that some swear is a dead ringer for J'Adore, while others find it a sour disappointment. If you're after a budget-friendly, fresh floral-fruity, it might just be your new signature. Just don't promise yourself a perfect dupe.
