Which Should You Buy?
A powerhouse of pure spice and amber that screams vintage glamour like few others. It's a divisive beast: some find it a sublime, comforting classic, others an overpowering relic. The reformulation saga means hunting down a vintage bottle is often a must for true fans.
This discontinued gem is divisive from the outset; some find it a cosy, spicy 'happiness in a bottle', while others are met with an 'overburnt vanilla' or a 'sickly' orange peel. If you can get your hands on a bottle, it seems like a must-try for oriental fans.
