Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Boss Soul Eau de Parfum
Boss Soul is a divisive, discontinued scent that some rate as a masterpiece for its warm, spicy allure, while others dismiss it as forgettable and dated. Its biggest flaw? Performance, or lack thereof. A 'hug in a bottle' that fades far too quickly.
Statement
Our Verdict - Magenta Tanzanite Eau de Parfum
Magenta Tanzanite is a deeply polarising fragrance, earning both adoration and derision for its intense spice and tobacco profile. Those who get it, really get it, describing it as an intoxicating masterpiece, while others find it too medicinal, burnt, or just 'meh'. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
