Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Accident À La Vanille
This one is pure dessert. A creamy, buttery vanilla gourmand that divides opinion straight down the middle - you'll either love smelling like a walking biscuit tin or you'll be running for the hills. Sillage and longevity are a bit hit and miss, but the scent itself is undoubtedly delicious for those who want to smell edible.
Statement
Our Verdict - Sound of a Ricochet
Divisive yet magnetic, Sound of a Ricochet is not for the faint-hearted. It polarises with its strong character, drawing comparisons to MFK Grand Soir but with a unique, sometimes challenging, smoky-woody vanilla twist. It's a statement scent, demanding appreciation.
