Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Fame Eau de Parfum
Divisive yet adored, Fame is a sweet, smoky surprise that defied expectations. While some wanted more edge from Gaga, this honeyed floral proved to be a sentimental favourite, now fetching ridiculous prices as a discontinued icon.
Statement
Our Verdict - Ishq Eau de Parfum
This one is a real head-turner, divisive but magnetic. Love it or hate it, Ishq commands attention with its potent blend of fruit and spice, often drawing comparisons to BR540 but with its own unique, powdery, fruity punch.
