Healing Flavour For Women

Which Should You Buy?
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.
A budget take on Jo Malone's Rose Water & Vanilla. Healing Flavour captures the candied Turkish-delight rose over creamy vanilla that defines the original, but Perfume Parlour adds a musk-and-patchouli base that grounds the sweetness, and the result reads a touch flatter and more linear than the decadent original.
