Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rose Water & Vanilla EDC
This one is a seriously divisive gourmand, hitting all the right notes for some but a synthetic, cloying disaster for others. It’s got that Love Don't Be Shy vibe for a fraction of the price, if you can get past the initial sharp blast.
Statement
Our Verdict - Rose Water & Vanilla Cologne (2023) EDP
This much-hyped Jo Malone limited edition is a delightful gourmand rose, balancing confectionery sweetness with a fresh, airy lift. Despite typical Jo Malone performance, fans adored its playful take on Turkish delight. It's often compared to some big hitters, but still manages to stand alone.
