Which Should You Buy?
Madly Kenzo! is a true head-scratcher; a divisive scent that's either a unique, comfortable incense dream or an acrid, overwhelming mess, depending on your skin chemistry and tolerance for the unusual. It’s certainly not for everyone, but those who love it, really love it.
This 'your skin but better' scent is less 'amber vanilla' and more an Iso E Super/Ambroxan love letter. It's a clean, musky ghost of a fragrance: some adore its subtle allure, while others struggle to smell it at all or find a 'pickle' note. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
