Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Soie Malaquais EDP
This one is a divisive delight, drawing adoration for its unique, silken charm, yet some can't get past what they see as a synthetic, shampoo-like quality or steep price. If you want a smooth, fruity-nutty rose with an elusive 'silk' accord, and don't mind a softer projection, this could be your next obsession.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Love Potion Sensual Ruby EDP
This 'Sensual Ruby' from Oriflame is a divisive one. Some find it a captivating fruity gourmand, while others are left cold, comparing it to cheaper alternatives or finding it lacks character. Try before you buy.
