Which Should You Buy?
This flanker is a divisive one, polarising fans of the original Flower by Kenzo. Expect a sensual, warm floral that some find elegantly blended and others dismiss as generic, screechy, and even 'grandma' like. Not a safe blind buy unless warm vanilla rose with a spicy saffron kick is your absolute jam.
This flanker isn't a radical departure from the original Flower, but it's refined, less cloying, and more balanced. It's a powdery floral that dances on the edge of 'too much', but largely succeeds due to its excellent blending and surprising longevity. A touch divisive, but mostly loved.
