Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - French Kiss
This raspberry-kissed, powdery floral is a divisive affair. Some find it a beautifully girly, sophisticated confection, while others are left cold by its sweet, plasticky 'doll' head vibe and fleeting presence. Try before you buy.
Statement
Our Verdict - Pose As Rose
This powdery violet-rose is a divisive dupe. Most rave about its uncanny resemblance to a high-end scent, finding it modern and fresh, but a vocal minority smell ammonia, old wood, or granny vibes. Try before you buy, it might just be your new obsession.
