Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Royal Sapphire EDP
This is a mass-appealing, high-quality white floral that's either a revelation or a niche clone of YSL MYSLF, depending on who you ask. It’s expensive, but surprisingly versatile and a bit of a crowd-pleaser.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Whisky Sugar Skull EDT
Whisky Sugar Skull is a divisive beast: some will find its dark, floral heart utterly compelling, others will simply run a mile. It is a bold, take-no-prisoners fragrance that demands attention, so don't expect to blend in.

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong floral and animalic accords, Whisky Sugar Skull leans more towards evening and special events. It is probably too intense for the office or casual daytime wear, but could make a statement at a formal gathering or a date where you want to be noticed.
