Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pleasures Eau de Parfum
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 - Envy Eau de Parfum
This legendary green floral is a bona fide masterpiece, still highly sought after and painfully missed since its discontinuation. Expect bold freshness, a unique sharp elegance, and compliments galore.
