Which Should You Buy?
This discontinued gem is divisive from the outset; some find it a cosy, spicy 'happiness in a bottle', while others are met with an 'overburnt vanilla' or a 'sickly' orange peel. If you can get your hands on a bottle, it seems like a must-try for oriental fans.
Prepare yourself for D'Orsay's Flower Lust: a divisive and potent floral bomb that demands attention. Some find it intoxicatingly unique and seductive, while others are overwhelmed by its sweetness and intensity. Either way, it's a bold statement, not a subtle whisper.
