Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Amethyst Exquise Eau de Parfum
A divisive sister to the original Amethyst, this 'night elixir' pushes berries into boozy, syrupy territory. Expect rich fruit, but be warned, some noses find the opening a bit rough around the edges.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Killing Me Slowly Eau de Parfum
A divisive aldehydic floral with a devoted fanbase who adore its sweet, powdery charm, but a significant minority can't get past a very unusual opening. For those who get it, it's addictive, classy, and commands compliments.
