Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pleasures EDP
A divisive floral powerhouse, Pleasures is either a timeless, clean classic or a screechy, headache-inducing scrubber. Its vibrant green-floral intensity makes it a love-it-or-hate-it scent with serious staying power.
Statement
Our Verdict - Splendor EDP
Splendor is a surprisingly beautiful and timeless floral, a proper crowd-pleaser that punches way, way above its price point. It's a genuine gem for spring, despite its dated reputation.
