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 - Talco Extrait
This is Talco, plain and simple. If you're after a sophisticated take on baby powder, New Notes delivers exactly that. It's polarising, with some finding it a comforting, clean dream and others dismissing it as too literal and, frankly, overpriced for what it is.

Seasons

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
