Which Should You Buy?
Climat is a legend, but Lancôme has truly messed it up with constant, often inferior, reformulations. If you're lucky enough to find a true vintage, you'll understand the hype for this clean, complex aldehyde floral. Otherwise, prepare for disappointment.
Accent Overpower is a divisive one, blending crisp green freshness with a noticeable camphor kick. If you fancy standing out, this bold, unusual scent is definitely worth a sniff.
