Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Kenzo World Intense Eau de Parfum
Divisive yet captivating, Kenzo World Intense is a bold plum symphony that you'll either adore for its unique, juicy sweetness or recoil from its unusual, sometimes overwhelming character. It's not a crowd-pleaser, but a strong personality for those seeking something truly different.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Valentino Donna Born in Roma Purple Melancholia Eau de Parfum
Divisive, to say the least. This 'melancholic' take on Born in Roma is either a captivating plum dream or a medicinal nightmare, depending on who you ask. Do not blind buy this one.
