Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vert d'Encens Eau de Parfum
A truly unique green-amber scent that divides opinion but clearly captivates. It's either an addictive, mysterious forest floor dream or a cloying, messy confusion. Try before you buy, if you can even find it given its cult-favourite discontinued status.

Our Verdict - Mississippi Medicine Eau de Parfum
This one's a wild ride. Expect a challenging, deeply atmospheric scent that conjures images of ancient woods and forgotten rituals. It's an artistic statement rather than a people-pleaser, so don't expect universal love, but those who 'get' it absolutely adore its unique, witchy charm.
