Which Should You Buy?
This sadly discontinued gem from Lalique is a classy, mature violet-driven marvel. Wearable, unique, and often compared to Fahrenheit but in a far more refined and less aggressive way. If you can find it, snap it up.
This is a truly divisive scent. Often called a 'magic potion', its fresh spicy-herbal hit is either an addictive, unique masterpiece or, for others, an unwearable 'anti-mosquito disinfectant'. Absolutely try before you buy.
