Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ambre Royal EDP
Prepare for a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Ambre Royal is a deeply divisive ambroxan bomb, sparking adoration from some and giving headaches to others. Definitely sample this one before splashing out, especially if you're sensitive to synthetics.
Acquired
Our Verdict - You Doux EDT
Glossier You Doux is a divisive woody-amber that some find heavenly and others, well, a bit pickled. Give it time and let it settle, because for its fans, it's a creamy, comforting, and uniquely alluring 'skin scent but better' that outshines the original. A polarising gem.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions
