Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Nilang Eau de Parfum
Nilang is a divisive throwback to the 90s, blending aquatic and gourmand notes into something truly unique. Some find it a captivating, complex floral-oriental, while others can't stomach its intensity. Definitely not for the faint of heart, but a must-try for those seeking something quirky and impactful.

Our Verdict - Purr Eau de Parfum
Katy Perry's Purr is a divisive one. Many find it a delightful, nostalgic fruity-floral, whilst others deem it a synthetic mess. It's a celebrity scent, so expect playful simplicity and a bottle designed to grab attention.
