Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Forbidden Games Eau de Parfum
More like 'Mildly Tempting Games'. This one's a divisive mix: some get juicy, honey-drizzled fruit perfection, others a cloying, dated floral with serious shampoo vibes. Definitely not a blind buy.
Statement
Our Verdict - Scandal A Paris Eau de Parfum
A sweet, juicy pear and honey bomb that's undeniably potent and divisive. It's either an addictive, versatile crowd-pleaser, or a cloying, 'toilet-like' catastrophe. You'll either love her or hate her, but you certainly won't forget her.
