Which Should You Buy?
Divisive yet adored, Rouge Malachite is a luxurious white floral bomb. Some find it a sophisticated masterpiece, others a screechy disappointment. Sample first, but if it clicks, expect compliments and a serious confidence boost.
This is a proper love-it-or-hate-it perfume; a big, brassy lily for those who want to make an entrance. If you like your florals shy and retiring, look elsewhere. This isn't subtle, and it certainly isn't mass-market sweet.
