L'Eau Papier EDP
Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Velvet Tender Oud EDP
Dolce & Gabbana's Velvet Tender Oud is a divisive beast: some praise its nuanced rose and gentle oud, while others decry it as a harsh, unoriginal clone. If you're after a Turkish Delight in a bottle, this might be your jam - or a synthetic headache.

Our Verdict - L'Eau Papier EDP
Divain's dupe of Diptyque's L'Eau Papier follows the same unusual mimosa-into-toasted-sesame arc onto a skin-like musk base, a fair budget sketch of the niche original's paper-thin intimacy.
