Which Should You Buy?
This one is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Forget sweet florals; Geranium Bourbon hits you with a punchy, almost masculine, botanical blast that evolves into something richer and more complex. It's divisive, but fans are fiercely loyal.
This one's a bit of an odd duck - some reckon it's a 'more clinical' take on the original Guilty, others find it a 'cozy' scent, but with poor projection. It's divisive, but for those who love it, it's a signature, almost 'grey and lace-y' experience.
