Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sensual Instinct EDP
This one's a proper Marmite scent - you'll either adore its sweet, mossy depth or recoil from its boozy, medicinal bite. Don't be swayed by the BR540 comparisons; this beast stands on its own, for better or worse.

Our Verdict - Sweet Shamali Oil
Sweet Shamali is Eden's own alcohol-free composition from their Zero Range, built around a smooth coffee-vanilla gourmand core rather than as a stated dupe of any single designer fragrance.
