Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cuir Amethyste EDP
A truly polarising scent. Some find Cuir Amethyste's violet-leather combo divine, a "holy grail" of elegance and sensuality. Others recoil from a "chemical soup," or a "wet animal hide" with cloying sweetness. Expect love-it-or-hate-it reactions.
