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.
Perfume Parlour's budget version of the original Dolce & Gabbana for Women (1992), that bold aldehydic-floral powerhouse. It captures the soapy aldehyde blast and carnation-led bouquet, just rendered flatter and with the original's 8-hour oomph trimmed back.
