Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Le Baiser Eau de Toilette
A divisive floral, Le Baiser by Lalique is either a beautiful, classic violet-rose bouquet for a refined lady, or a sickly sweet, old-fashioned scent fit only for your grandma. People feel strongly about this one, for better or worse.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Love Affair Eau de Parfum
This one's a bit of a mixed bag; elegant and subtle for some, but others find its weak performance a dealbreaker. It's a powdery, gentle floral that whispers rather than shouts, ideal for close encounters.
