Which Should You Buy?
This discontinued Guerlain masterpiece divides opinion like few others. It's either an intoxicating, complex amber-leather dream or a synthetic scrubber. The love for it is intense; the hate, equally so. Proceed with caution and definitely sample first, if you can even find it.
This one's a divisive beast, not for the faint of heart. Expect a punchy, almost synthetic leather with a surprising raspberry twist that some will love and others will simply find 'odd'. Beast-mode projection means you'll be noticed, for better or worse.
