Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Royal Sapphire EDP
This is a mass-appealing, high-quality white floral that's either a revelation or a niche clone of YSL MYSLF, depending on who you ask. It’s expensive, but surprisingly versatile and a bit of a crowd-pleaser.

Our Verdict - L'Interdit (2022) EDT
This EDT flanker is a divisive one. While some find L'Interdit's white floral and citrus core refined and perfect for everyday wear, others find it a watered-down, less exciting version of its predecessors. It's safe, but maybe *too* safe for some. Love it or hate it, just don't expect a carbon copy of the EDP.
