Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Love Don't Be Shy EDP
A decadent marshmallow and orange blossom fantasy, Love Don't Be Shy is unapologetically sweet, lush, and seductive. It is a niche gourmand for those who want to be noticed and enveloped in plush, romantic warmth.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Love Don't Be Shy - 112 EDP
No. 112 mirrors By Kilian's Love Don't Be Shy neroli-marshmallow signature closely, but where the original's marshmallow-orange blossom accord is famous for strong 8-10 hour sillage, this version settles to skin much sooner.
