Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rouge Velours EDP
This is a bold, velvety rose-patchouli that'll make you feel like 'that girl' - or 'that guy'. It's not a safe blind buy thanks to the prominent patchouli, but for those who love a deep, dark rose, it’s an absolute stunner and a solid example of the genre.

Our Verdict - No.070 Knowing EDP
Eden's take on Estee Lauder's cult-classic Knowing softens the original's famously funky, civet-heavy chypre into a cleaner, more wearable mossy-floral - a gentler introduction to the genre, though purists chasing that raw, old-school chypre depth will still want the real thing.
