Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pleasures Intense EDP
A powerhouse floral that, despite its name, carves out its own distinct identity. It's truly a "love it or hate it" scent; some find it a gorgeous, natural bouquet, while others are overwhelmed by its potent and sometimes sharp white florals.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Mauboussin Pour Elle EDP
Mauboussin Pour Elle is a surprisingly divisive blind buy. Some find it a classy, elegant floral-fruity with decent performance, others are left underwhelmed by a weak, synthetic scent that fails to deliver on its promise. It's either a hidden gem or a forgettable miss, depending on your skin chemistry.
