Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - In Love Again EDP
This YSL classic is pure bottled sunshine, a fruity floral marvel that makes people happy despite its frustratingly elusive nature. Often compared to Baby Doll, it's a superior, joyous scent with a passionately loyal fanbase that will move mountains to get another bottle.

Our Verdict - Holy Peony EDP
This one is divisive among the Prive collection. It's a pretty, uncomplicated floral-fruity, but many find it too simple, too rosy for a "Holy Peony", and a touch overpriced for what you get. Others adore its delicate charm and surprising longevity.
