Which Should You Buy?
This one's a true classic, an approachable Serge Lutens that showcases cinnamon in its purest, warmest form. It's a crowd-pleaser that evokes strong feelings of cosy nostalgia, though some find its linearity a bit much. A real shame it's so hard to find now.
A truly divisive scent: some find it a luxurious, warm embrace, while others dismiss it as an overpriced, generic mess. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but those who love it, really love it for its comforting depth.
