Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ombre Rose L'Original Eau de Parfum
This is a love-it-or-hate-it classic that divides opinion. For some, it's a nostalgic, sophisticated powder bomb - for others, a choking, dated nightmare that smells like baby products or worse. Approach with caution.
Statement
Our Verdict - Iris des Champs Eau de Parfum
This is a polarising take on iris. Some find it a beautifully blended, creamy, and sophisticated floral; others recoil from what they perceive as a screechy, soapy mess. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
