Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - De Magnolia Eau de Toilette

This is a clean, crisp magnolia that's surprisingly divisive. Some find it a masterpiece of fresh realism, others a bit too soapy or masculine. It's a Malle, so quality's a given, but opinions are split.

Our Verdict - de Rochas Eau de Toilette

A divisive citrus classic, Eau de Rochas splits opinion with its sharp, vintage charm. Some find it a refreshing summer essential, while others are put off by its 'old-school' or 'masculine' edge. Love it or hate it, it's certainly got character.
