Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Woman in Gold EDP
This one's a divisive Kilian, with some declaring it a masterpiece of modern vanilla elegance, while others recoil from what they perceive as an 'old lady' or even 'bug spray' scent. Expect strong opinions - you'll either love her or hate her.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Montaigne Vanille EDP
This one's a proper divisive scent. Some reckon it's a classy rose-vanilla head-turner, a dupe for pricier niche, while others find it a cloying, 'old lady' horror show with no trace of vanilla. Proceed with caution and definitely don't blind buy.

Its robust projection and luxurious fragrance make it a standout for formal events and dates, though a lighter hand can make it suitable for a classy office setting. It's too opulent for casual daytime wear or anything active, really.
