Which Should You Buy?
Visa is a beautiful, complex fruity-woody marvel for those who want to smell sophisticated without sacrificing any sexiness. It's often compared to Angel, but usually with the caveat that Visa is the classier, more refined older sister. Though there's some love-it-or-hate-it debate, the adoration is overwhelming.
Givenchy Absolutely Irresistible is a divisive, discontinued gem. Some find it a spicy, glamorous femme fatale scent, while others get a cloying mess with poor performance. Worth tracking down if you covet bold, unique florals.
