Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - L'Interdit Rouge EDP
A fiery twist on the L'Interdit DNA, Rouge is a seductive, creamy white floral laced with cacao and spice. It projects confidence and allure - ideal for evenings and cool weather.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Imperial 50/50 EDP
Compiled from the house's own product notes: a spicy blood orange-ginger opening moves into a rich jasmine-tuberose-pimento heart before a musk-sandalwood-patchouli-vetiver base - a fruity-spicy-floral composition with real body across all three of the Imperial line's variants.
