Which Should You Buy?
This is a divisive, powerhouse aldehyde that unapologetically screams early 90s Italian glamour. Most love it or hate it, thanks to its bold, soapy opening, but for its fans, it's an addictive, confident classic.
High End channels the powerful aldehydic floral-chypre of the original Fendi, sparkling open with aldehydes before sinking into a rich amber-leather-sandalwood base. The vintage's regal, days-long drydown is softened here, but it captures that glamorous Italianate character on a budget.
