Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Parisienne Eau de Parfum
A truly divisive scent, Parisienne is either a chic, playful rush of berry and vinyl or a headache-inducing synthetic mess. Love it or hate it, YSL's gamble on a "plasticky" rose scent certainly sparked debate.
Statement
Our Verdict - Nahema Eau de Parfum
Prepare for a proper head-scratcher with Nahema. This isn't your average rosy crowd-pleaser; it's a divisive, complex floral that swings from 'absolute sorcery' to 'unwearable green bitterness'. If you're after a classic with a challenging edge, this could be your unique signature, but definitely don't blind buy.
