Which Should You Buy?
This extrait is Guerlain's unapologetic, hyper-concentrated ode to tonka bean - intensely sweet, creamy, and undeniably luxurious. Expect a syrupy, long-lasting embrace that divides opinion between those who adore its richness and those who find it overwhelming or overpriced.
This is a seriously divisive gourmand. Fans love its expertly blended autumnal vibes, while detractors find it smells like scented candles or even wet dog. Expect a strong cinnamon performance, but don't expect it to please everyone.
