Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Joy Eau de Parfum

Joy is undeniably brilliant in its vintage formulation, a true masterpiece of potent florals. However, modern iterations often disappoint, leaving many to mourn the loss of its original grandeur. It's a divisive scent by today's standards, often described as 'dated' or 'old lady' by some, yet 'timeless' and 'luxurious' by others.

Our Verdict - Intimately Beckham Eau de Parfum

A truly underrated gem for sensible prices, Intimately Beckham is a beautiful, sophisticated white floral that punches well above its weight. Don't be put off by the celeb branding, this is proper perfumery. Just be prepared to hunt for a bottle - it's discontinued.
