Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Dahlia Divin Le Nectar de
Givenchy's Dahlia Divin Le Nectar is absolute class in a bottle. Despite being discontinued (a travesty, say fans), it's a beautifully blended, warm floral that smells expensive and draws compliments. Some find it a bit too sweet and powdery, others complain about performance, but the consensus is overwhelmingly positive.

Our Verdict - Rain Cloud
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Some reckon it's a sublime post-rain garden, others are getting musty old florals or even 'stale urinoir'. It's definitely not for everyone, but if you love creamy, waxy ylang-ylang and musk, you might just fall hard for its unique artistry.
