Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Citizen Queen Eau de Parfum
Citizen Queen is a love-it-or-hate-it powder bomb with serious vintage vibes, blending classic elegance with a modern edge. Expect an acquired taste, not a simple crowd-pleaser.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Iris Eau de Parfum
This is a fiercely divisive powder bomb, a sweet iris that smells like luxury make-up or baby wipes depending on who you ask. Prepare for monstrous longevity and projection too - it’s not for shrinking violets.
