Which Should You Buy?
This one is divisive: some find it a unique, fizzy delight, a 'showstopper' for socialising; others an 'unremarkable' champagne-and-citrus scent that's too weak, too sweet, or just a bit odd. Test before you buy.
A tragically discontinued masterpiece, YSL Nu EDP still commands a cult following for its deep, sensual spice and incense. Many lament its loss, while others cherish their "hockey puck" bottles like precious relics. This is Y2K dark glamour, polarising but unforgettable.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
