Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pure DKNY Eau de Parfum
This is a clean, comforting floral-woody scent, with a divisive vanilla note that some love and others can't detect. It's an easy reach for many, but others find it too subtle or even synthetic.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Volupté Eau de Parfum
Volupté is a polarising floral bomb from the 90s, often drawing comparisons to Tresor but with its own unique, sometimes sharp, character. Not for the faint-hearted, it's a love-it-or-hate-it scent with a loyal following for its bold, complex charm.
