Which Should You Buy?
Divisive yet iconic, Red Door is the confident, unapologetic queen of vintage florals. Expect a powerful performance, but proceed with caution - this one's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that triggers strong opinions and even stronger reactions.
Right Lady Severe chases By Kilian Good Girl Gone Bad Extreme, holding onto the creamy white-floral bouquet of osmanthus, rose and tuberose with that milky warmth, but the dupe renders it flatter and skin-closer, missing the original's cocooning depth and refined, narcotic floral richness.
