Which Should You Buy?
This is a clean, understated gem that punches above its weight, delivering spa-like tranquillity and sophisticated freshness. Don't expect huge projection, but it's a solid everyday reach that smells far more expensive than it is.
Phtaloblue is Tauer's most divisive creation to date, a love-it-or-hate-it aquatic that defies traditional blue fragrance expectations. It's a bold, artistic statement, but be warned: some find it an absolute scrubber, while others adore its unique, evocative qualities.
