Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Kenzo Eau de Toilette

A legendary 80s powerhouse white floral that polarises opinion: some find it a gorgeous, complex masterpiece; others a dated, overwhelming floral bomb. You either adore its vibrant, unapologetic essence or dismiss it as too vintage, harking back to a forgotten era.

Our Verdict - Hawa Eau de Parfum

Hawa is a divisive beast: some hail it as a stunning, compliment-getting floral, others find it a screechy, headache-inducing mess. It's a bold, long-lasting scent that demands attention.
