Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ange ou Demon EDP
Givenchy's 'Ange ou Demon' is a truly divisive scent- one sniff and you'll either be captivated by its enigmatic embrace or you'll recoil from its peculiar charm. This is for the bold, not the faint-hearted. It’s a love-it-or-hate-it kind of potion.

Our Verdict - Orchid Seed EDP
Orchid Seed recreates Jo Malone's Vanilla & Anise, the transparent, herbal-spicy vanilla-floral. It captures the gentle star-anise-and-fennel freshness and that frangipani-jasmine-vanilla heart; since the original is itself a light, short-lived linear scent, the dupe's skin-close, modest-longevity character lands close to type for the price.
