Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lettre de Pushkar

This is a seriously polarising one. Some adore its luxurious, jammy rose and warm embrace, while others can't get past a 'rubbery' saffron or synthetic sweetness. Definitely not a blind buy, but if it sings on your skin, it's a real stunner.

Our Verdict - Ta'if

A bold rose-saffron-honey combo, Gallivant's Ta'if has stirred up quite the fuss in certain circles. Is it a copy or a clever homage? That's up to you to decide, but don't knock it until you've actually smelled it.
