Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - SpellBound
This 90s powerhouse is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, SpellBound is pure magic. It's a heady, unapologetic declaration of confidence, though beware the reformulation roulette - the vintage is where the true enchantment lies.

Our Verdict - Tuberosa
This isn't for the faint of heart, it's a bold, fruity tuberose bomb that sparks strong opinions. Some find it a masterpiece of modern florals, others an overpowering, syrupy mess. Definitely one to test before buying if you're not a fan of powerful, sweet tuberose.
