Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Terracotta Le Parfum Parfum
This perfume is a triumph of sophisticated summer. Forget the 'sunscreen vibe' detractors - Terracotta is a luxurious, creamy floral escape, blending tropical warmth with Guerlain's signature elegance. It's sunshine in a bottle, perfect for those seeking an elevated summer scent.

Our Verdict - Playmate EDT
This one is a properly divisive beast. A creamy, tropical, white floral dream for some, while others find it a musky, cloying nightmare. Definitely not a blind buy - sample this one on skin to see which side of the Playmate coin you land on.
