Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - She Wood Velvet Forest Wood EDP
This one is a divisive gem. For some, it's a sublime journey into a serene forest; for others, it's a fleeting green whisper that fails to deliver on its promise. If you crave a natural, tranquil escape, it's worth a sniff, but don't expect a beastly performance.
