Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Encre Noire Pour Elle Eau de Parfum

If you're after a clean, musky rose with a touch of elegance, this is your cup of tea. But don't go in expecting a 'noir' experience like its masculine counterpart, as it definitely leans into soft, powdery floral territory. It's a divisive one, loved by some for its serene femininity and dismissed by others for being too 'safe' or 'soapy'.

Our Verdict - Musc K Eau de Parfum

Musc K is a prime example of a 'your skin but better' scent, a clean musk that's sparking furious debate. Fans adore its luxurious, subtle projection, comparing it to a refined Glossier You. Detractors, however, find it overhyped, overpriced, and for some, it even evokes unsettling notes like "elephant" or "carpet deodoriser".
