Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Jacomo for Her EDP
This one is a properly divisive chypre. For some, it embodies elegant sophistication, a woody-rose dream. For others, it’s a scrubber, an indolic nightmare of cheap patchouli. Definitely not a safe blind buy, you'll either adore it or regret it.

Our Verdict - Far Island For Women EDP
A budget tribute to Guy Laroche's vintage Fidji. The clean, soapy green-floral character with its powdery iris lands recognisably, though Perfume Parlour smooths away much of the original's resinous galbanum complexity.
