Which Should You Buy?
This is a patchouli for the uninitiated, offering a cleaner, fresher take on a classic note. It's often hailed as a modern, wearable patchouli, but some find it lacks character and performance. A gorgeous and addictive 'modern sexy patchouli' for some, a 'soapy mess' for others.
This one's a real marmite scent. Some find its vintage, dusty plum and resinous character intoxicatingly sexy and sophisticated, while others recoil from what they perceive as 'rotting fruit' and 'medicinal' notes. Test before you commit, this isn't a safe blind buy.
