Which Should You Buy?
Nilang 2011 is a divisive beast, with some hailing it as a masterpiece of sweet, spicy fruit and others finding it overwhelmi+ng. Love it or hate it, it's certainly not a wallflower, offering a mature and complex take on fruity patchouli.
A truly surprising gem from Avon, Far Away Exotic is a love-it-or-hate-it spicy tropical bomb. It's affordable, lasts ages, and smells far more expensive than it is. Prepare for a unique, chai-like scent profile that will transport you to warmer climes.
