Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Turquoise Summer EDP
Turquoise Summer is a divisive holiday fling in a bottle. Expect a loud, synthetic fruit punch that some adore as pure fun, while others find it unsophisticated and fleeting. Performance is the biggest sticking point; it's here for a good time, not a long time.
Statement
Our Verdict - Forbidden Fruits EDP
Rebel Aromas' inspired-by take on Jo Malone's English Pear & Freesia. Forbidden Fruits swaps the crisp, minimal pear-freesia simplicity for a sweeter, louder fruit cocktail, gaining sweetness but losing the original's clean, understated elegance.
