Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Killing Me Slowly EDP
A divisive aldehydic floral with a devoted fanbase who adore its sweet, powdery charm, but a significant minority can't get past a very unusual opening. For those who get it, it's addictive, classy, and commands compliments.
Acquired
Our Verdict - French Kiss EDP
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.
